DOCKET NO. 13-20 711
DATE:	October 26, 2018
ORDER
The appeal is dismissed.
FINDING OF FACT
In an August 2018 statement, prior to the promulgation of a decision in the appeal, the Veteran withdrew the appeal of the issues of entitlement to increased evaluations for right knee arthritis and degenerative disc disease and degenerative joint disease of the lumbar spine.
CONCLUSION OF LAW
The criteria for withdrawal of an appeal by the appellant have been met.  38 U.S.C. § 7105(b)(2), (d)(5); 38 C.F.R. § 20.204.
REASONS AND BASES FOR FINDING AND CONCLUSION
The Board may dismiss any appeal which fails to allege specific error of fact or law in the determination being appealed.  38 U.S.C. § 7105.  An appeal may be withdrawn as to any or all issues involved in the appeal at any time before the Board promulgates a decision.  38 C.F.R. § 20.204.  Withdrawal may be made by the appellant or by his or her authorized representative.  38 C.F.R. § 20.204.  In the present case, the appellant has withdrawn the issues on appeal and, hence, there remain no allegations of errors of fact or law for appellate consideration.  Accordingly, the Board does not have jurisdiction to review the appeal and it is dismissed.
