DATE: March 31, 2022

ORDER

Entitlement to an increased schedular evaluation for radiculopathy right upper extremity with carpal tunnel syndrome is dismissed.

FINDING OF FACT

In a March 2022 correspondence, the Veteran expressed the desire to withdraw the appeal of entitlement of an increased rating for his right upper extremity disability. 

CONCLUSION OF LAW

The criteria for withdrawal of entitlement to an increased schedular evaluation for  radiculopathy right upper extremity with carpal tunnel syndrome by the Veteran have been met.  38 U.S.C. § 7105; 38 C.F.R. § 19.55.

REASONS AND BASES FOR FINDING AND CONCLUSION

The Veteran served on active duty from July 1984 to July 2004.

This matter comes before the Board of Veterans' Appeals (Board) on appeal from a rating decision of the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Regional Office (RO). 

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  An appeal may be withdrawn as to any or all issues involved in the appeal at any time before the Board promulgates a decision.  38 C.F.R. § 20.204.  Withdrawal may be made by the appellant or authorized representative.  38 C.F.R. § 20.204.

As in a March 2022 statement, the Veteran has expressed his desire to withdraw the issue for increased schedular evaluation for  radiculopathy right upper extremity with carpal tunnel syndrome on appeal, there remains no allegations of errors of fact or law for appellate consideration.  Accordingly, the Board does not have jurisdiction to review this appeal and it is dismissed.
