DOCKET NO. 14-38 777
DATE:	November 29, 2018
ORDER
Entitlement to service connection for ischemic heart disease is dismissed.
FINDING OF FACT
In November 2018, prior to the promulgation of a decision in the present appeal, the Board received notification from the Veteran’s representative that the Veteran wished to withdraw his appeal.  
CONCLUSION OF LAW
The criteria for withdrawal of a substantive appeal by the Veteran have been met. 38 U.S.C. § 7105 (b)(2), (d)(5); 38 C.F.R. §§ 20.202, 20.204.
REASONS AND BASES FOR FINDING AND CONCLUSION
The Veteran served on active duty from June 1966 to June 1968.
This appeal comes before the Board of Veterans’ Appeals (Board) from a February 2012 rating decision of a Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Regional Office (RO).
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 An appeal may be withdrawn as to any or all issues involved in the appeal at any time before the Board promulgates a decision. 38 C.F.R. § 20.204.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 instant case, prior to the promulgation of a decision in the present appeal, the Veteran’s representative, via written statement received by the Board in November 2018, indicated that the Veteran wished to withdraw his appeal. 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.
