Dismissed
The Board dismissed the Veteran's appeal regarding entitlement to specially adapted housing and special home adaptation as it could not be appealed to the Board, resulting in more than one review on appeal.
The deciding factor: The June 2024 Board decision was the 'one review on appeal' to the Secretary mentioned in 38 U.S.C. § 7104, and thus cannot be appealed to the Board again.

What this means for you
A dismissal means the Board did not decide the issue on its merits — usually because it was withdrawn or had become moot. It says more about procedure than about whether a claim like this can win.
