Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's appeal to revise the April 2017 rating decision that reduced the disability rating for service-connected posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) from 70 percent to a 50 percent rating, finding no clear and unmistakable error.
The deciding factor: There was no evidence establishing that the correct facts were not before the RO at the time of the April 2017 decision or that the RO incorrectly applied applicable laws or regulations. The reduction in the disability rating for PTSD from 70 percent to 50 percent was supported by the record.
