DOCKET NO. 17-42 896
DATE: February 4, 2021

ORDER

The appeal is dismissed.

FINDING OF FACT

On December 3, 2020, prior to the promulgation of a decision in the appeal, the Board received notification from the Veteran’s representative that a withdrawal of this appeal was requested by the Veteran.

CONCLUSION OF LAW

The criteria for withdrawal of an appeal by the Veteran have been met.  38 U.S.C. § 7105; 38 C.F.R. § 20.205. 

INTRODUCTION

The Veteran served active duty in the Air Force from May 1963 to April 1967.

This matter comes before the Board of Veterans’ Appeals based on an October 2015 rating decision by the Veterans Affairs (VA) Regional Office (RO).  This appeal has been advanced on the Board's docket.  38 U.S.C. § 7107 (a)(2); 38 C.F.R. § 20.900(c).

The Board may dismiss any appeal that 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  An appeal may be withdrawn as to any or all issues involved in the appeal at any time before the Board promulgates a decision.  38 C.F.R. § 20.205.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.  38 C.F.R. § 20.205.  In the present case, the appellant has withdrawn this appeal and, hence, there remain no allegations of errors of fact or law for appellate consideration.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.
