Dismissed
The appeal was dismissed due to the Veteran's death prior to a ruling on the extension of time for filing an appeal.
The deciding factor: The appeal was dismissed as it did not survive the Veteran's death, and no eligible person filed a request for substitution within one year of the Veteran's death.
