The CAVC remanded the case back to the BVA, and the last sentence in the conclusion was one I have never seen before in any VA or CAVC decision.
The veteran claimed he had received misleading info from the VA that was detrimental to his claim.
"Given the Board's concession that the January 1982 notice was misleading, R. at 8, the appellant may wish to seek equitable relief pursuant to 38 U.S.C. § 503(a)."
I dont have time to fully read the case-yet but I am surprised at the conclusion statement.
Equitable Relief info is here at hadit, but very hard to succeed in. It appears that this veteran could succeed under 38 USC 503 (a).
