Denied
The Board denied the motion to revise or reverse on the basis of clear and unmistakable error (CUE) a November 1993 rating decision that assigned a noncompensable (zero percent) rating for tinnitus.
The deciding factor: There was no evidence undebatably establishing that the Veteran's tinnitus could only have been caused by acoustic trauma in service, and the correct facts were before the adjudicator at the time of the November 1993 rating decision.
