Dismissed
The Board dismissed the appeal for an increased disability rating for the Veteran's right foot plantar's wart because the July 7, 2021 rating decision was not a final, appealable action.
The deciding factor: The July 7, 2021 rating decision deferred the claim pending further development and did not constitute a final adjudicative determination.

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A dismissal means the Board did not decide the issue on its merits — usually because it was withdrawn or had become moot.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.
