Supreme Court weighs where imprisoned veteran can fight benefit cut from $25,226 to $2,165
The Supreme Court is considering where an incarcerated veteran can challenge a federal rule that sharply reduces VA disability payments for those imprisoned more than 60 days.
Veterans imprisoned for more than 60 days following a felony conviction generally have their disability compensation limited. Those with disability ratings of 20% or higher are paid at the 10% rate, according to federal law.
