Docket No. Op. Below Argument Opinion Vote Author Term
21-465 Fed. Cir. N/A N/A N/A N/A OT 2021

Issue: Whether the term "relevant official service department records" in 38 C.F.R. " 3.156(c)(1)"s "reconsideration" provision encompasses all records that "go to a benefits criterion," or is instead restricted to only those records that "relate to the basis of the [Department of Veterans Affairs"] initial denial of benefits," as in Kisor v. Wilkie.
