DOCKET NO. 14-27 302
DATE: January 14, 2020

ORDER

The appeal is dismissed.

FINDING OF FACT

Following the Board’s remand in May 2018, the Veteran was granted service connection for erectile dysfunction in an October 2019 rating decision.

CONCLUSION OF LAW

The criteria for dismissal from appeal of the service connection claim for erectile dysfunction have been met. 38 U.S.C. § 7105 (2012).

REASONS AND BASES FOR FINDING AND CONCLUSION

The Veteran served on active duty from March 1985 to October 2000.

In May 2018, the Board remanded this matter for further development; namely to afford the Veteran another VA examination.

1. The issue of entitlement to service connection for erectile dysfunction.

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. In the present case, following the Board’s remand in May 2018, the Regional Office granted service connection for erectile dysfunction in an October 2019 rating decision. As such, the benefit being sought has been awarded. Consequently, there remains no allegation of error of fact or law for appellate consideration. Accordingly, the Board no longer has jurisdiction to review the appeal and it is dismissed.
