Dismissed
The veteran withdrew the appeal for both an earlier effective date and increased evaluation for lumbosacral spine degenerative arthritis, strain, scoliosis, and facet arthropathy, as well as a separate compensable rating for radiculopathy.
The deciding factor: The Veteran indicated in a written statement that they were withdrawing the appeal, which is within their right to do so at any time prior to the Board's decision.
