FINDING OF FACT

On February 8, 2021, prior to the promulgation of a decision in the appeal, the Board received notification from the Veteran and his attorney that a withdrawal of the remaining issues on appeal was requested.

CONCLUSION OF LAW

The criteria for withdrawal of an appeal by the Veteran and his attorney 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  An appeal may be withdrawn as to any or all issues involved in the appeal at any time before the Board promulgates a decision.  38 C.F.R. § 19.55.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.  38 C.F.R. § 19.55.  In the present case, the Veteran and his attorney has withdrawn this appeal and, hence, there remain no allegations of errors of fact or law for appellate consideration.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 these appeals and they are dismissed.
