FINDING OF FACT

On September 10, 2021, prior to the promulgation of a decision in the appeal, the Board received notification from the appellant that a withdrawal of this appeal is requested.

CONCLUSION OF LAW

The criteria for withdrawal of an appeal by the appellant have been met.  38 U.S.C. § 7105; 38 C.F.R. § 19.55.

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  An appeal may be withdrawn as to any or all issues involved in the appeal at any time before the Board promulgates a decision.  38 C.F.R. § 19.55.  Withdrawal may be made by the appellant or by his or her authorized representative.  Id.  

In the present case, in written correspondence received in September 2021, the appellant explicitly and unambiguously withdrew his appeal of the issues of entitlement to service connection for PTSD, a deviated septum, jaw dislocation, sleep apnea, and a traumatic brain injury.  The Board finds that there remain no allegations of errors of fact or law for appellate consideration with respect to these issues.  Accordingly, as the Board has no further jurisdiction to review the appeal on these matters, it is dismissed.
