Dismissed
The appeal under the Appeals Modernization Act (AMA) was dismissed as the Appellant did not withdraw her Legacy appeal for the same issue.
The deciding factor: The concurrent election of both Legacy and AMA systems for the same issue is prohibited by regulation, rendering the newer notice of disagreement invalid.
