Decision Date: 11/14/18	Archive Date: 11/13/18

DOCKET NO. 08-16 235
DATE:	November 14, 2018
ORDER
The appeal is dismissed.
FINDING OF FACT
On September 21, 2018, prior to the promulgation of a decision in the appeal, the Board received notification from the appellant, through his authorized representative, that a withdrawal of this appeal is requested.
CONCLUSION OF LAW
The criteria for withdrawal of an appeal by the appellant (or his or her authorized representative) 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  An appeal may be withdrawn as to any or all issues involved in the appeal at any time before the Board promulgates a decision.  38 C.F.R. § 20.204.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  In the present case, the appellant, through his/her authorized representative, has withdrawn this appeal, pertaining to claims for service connection for sleep apnea and entitlement to special monthly compensation at the aid and attendance and/or housebound level, 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.
