Denied
The appeal for accrued benefits was denied as the claim was filed more than one year after the Veteran's death and there were no pending claims at the time of his death.
The deciding factor: The claim for accrued benefits was untimely and no unadjudicated claims existed at the time of the Veteran's death, making it ineligible for consideration under VA regulations.
