DOCKET NO. 16-58 329
DATE:	December 6, 2018
ORDER
The appeal is dismissed.
FINDING OF FACT
On April 21, 2017, prior to the promulgation of a decision in the appeal, the Board received notification from the Veteran that a withdrawal of this appeal is requested.
CONCLUSION OF LAW
The criteria for withdrawal of an appeal by the Veteran have been met. 38 U.S.C. § 7105(b)(2), (d)(5) (2012); 38 C.F.R. § 20.204 (2017).
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 An appeal may be withdrawn as to any or all issues involved in the appeal at any time before the Board promulgates a decision. 38 C.F.R. § 20.204.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. 
Here, pursuant to a hand-written statement from the Veteran dated April 21, 2017, he has withdrawn this appeal pertaining to higher ratings for migraines and TDIU. Further, he also revoked the power of attorney for the representative who had been assisting him with the appeal. The Board finds that the Veteran’s withdrawal is explicit, unambiguous, and done with a full understanding of the consequences of such action. See DeLisio v. Shinseki, 25 Vet. App. 45 (2011). 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.
