CONCLUSIONS OF LAW

1. The criteria for withdrawal by appellant of his appeal for entitlement to an increased rating in excess of 10 percent for left knee degenerative joint disease status post left knee meniscectomy prior to March 5, 2020, and in excess of 30 percent from May 1, 2021, have been met. 38 U.S.C. § 7105; 38 C.F.R. § 19.55.

2. The criteria for withdrawal by appellant of his appeal for entitlement to a compensable rating for left knee scar status post left knee meniscectomy have been met. 38 U.S.C. § 7105; 38 C.F.R. § 19.55.

REASONS AND BASES FOR FINDING AND CONCLUSIONS

The Veteran served on active duty from December 1965 to December 1967.

This case returns to the Board of Veterans' Appeals (Board) after a remand to the agency of original jurisdiction (AOJ) in April 2020.

The AOJ readjudicated the claims on appeal in an August 2020 rating decision and August 2020 supplemental statement of the case (SSOC). 

On September 2, 2020, prior to the promulgation of a decision in this case, the Veteran filed an Appeals Satisfaction Notice in response to the August 2020 rating decision and August 2020 SSOC. The notice indicates that he is satisfied and wishes to withdraw all remaining issues associated with this appeal as contained in the August 2020 SSOC. The Board finds his intent to withdraw is clear and unambiguous.

As there are no remaining allegations of error of fact or law for appellate consideration, the Board does not have jurisdiction and the appeal is dismissed. 38 U.S.C. § 7105; 38 C.F.R. § 19.55.
