REASONS AND BASES FOR FINDING AND CONCLUSION The Veteran served on active duty from March 2000 to October 2000. This matter comes before the Board of Veterans’ Appeals (Board) on appeal from a rating decision issued in December 2016 by a Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Regional Office (RO). Entitlement to a rating in excess of 10 percent for left knee patellofemoral pain syndrome with degenerative arthritis. 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 An appeal may be withdrawn as to any or all issues involved in the appeal at any time before the Board promulgates a decision. 38 C.F.R. § 20.205. Withdrawal may be made by the appellant or by his or her authorized representative. Id. In the present case, the Veteran, through his representative, withdrew his appeal for an increased rating for his left knee disability in September 2018, which was again confirmed by his representative in December 2019. 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. A.
