Dismissed

The Board dismissed the Veteran's motion to revise a December 2003 decision on the basis of clear and unmistakable error (CUE) because the statement accompanying the June 2015 notice of disagreement satisfied the requirements for such a motion.

The deciding factor: The Board found that the August 2019 motion was sufficiently pled to revise the December 2003 decision on CUE, but dismissed the appeal as moot due to the submission of another motion for revision based on CUE in June 2015.

What this means for you

A dismissal means the Board did not decide the issue on its merits — usually because it was withdrawn or had become moot. It says more about procedure than about whether a claim like this can win.
