Dismissed
The appeal of the proposed rating decrease for bladder cancer, from 100 percent to 20 percent is dismissed as a matter of law. The Board also denied entitlement to a schedular rating in excess of 100 percent for bladder cancer.
The deciding factor: The appeal was premature as no adjudicative determination had been made by the AOJ regarding the proposed decrease, and the maximum schedular rating has been in effect for the entire period on appeal.
