Veterans Law Judge C. TRUEBA-SESSING
Issue-level outcome statistics computed from the full text of 28 public
Board of Veterans' Appeals decisions signed by VLJ C. TRUEBA-SESSING in the corpus slice below.
What this is computed from: 1,574,914 Board decisions
(3,455,223 individual issues) dated 2001-01-07 to 2026-04-30, parsed from the public
BVA decision archive at va.gov. Corpus ingest is in progress — the full 1992–2026 archive (~1.9M decisions)
is being added, newest year first, so recent years are over-represented right now.
Totals that blend all years therefore drift as older years land; the per-year table is the stable view. Rates are issue-level: one appeal often decides
several issues, and the Board's own reporting cautions that per-decision rates overstate grant rates.
118,711 decisions our parser could not fully classify are excluded from rate math.
Data build: 2026-08-30.

Docket mix drives outcome rates: judges deciding more increased-rating appeals (where partial grants are
common) will look different from judges deciding more service-connection appeals. Compare a judge against
the Board-wide issue-level baseline before reading anything into a single rate.
