DATE: November 5, 2021

FINDING OF FACT

On November 3, 2021, 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's authorized representative have been met.  38 U.S.C. § 7105; 38 C.F.R. § 19.55.

REASONS AND BASES FOR FINDING AND CONCLUSION

The Veteran had active duty service from January 1969 to January 1971, and from September 1980 to September 1983.

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  An appeal may be withdrawn as to any or all issues involved in the appeal at any time before the Board promulgates a decision.  38 C.F.R. § 19.55.  Withdrawal may be made by the appellant or by his or her authorized representative.  38 C.F.R. § 19.55.  In the present case, the appellant, through his attorney, has withdrawn this appeal and, hence, there remain no allegations of errors of fact or law for appellate consideration. The correspondence from his attorney stated that the Veteran was "very satisfied with his rating" and that he "do[es] not wish any further review on his case." Accordingly, the Board does not have jurisdiction to review the appeal and it is dismissed.
