The appeal is dismissed as the issue of service connection for chronic sinusitis has been granted in full.
The deciding factor: There is no longer any case or controversy within the Board's jurisdiction as relating to the appealed claim, since the AOJ has already awarded entitlement to service connection for chronic sinusitis.
