The appeal seeking revision or reversal of the April 2020 Board decision that denied a motion to revise or reverse on the basis of CUE a November 2017 Board decision that denied service connection for bilateral knee disorders is dismissed.
The deciding factor: The September 2020 supplemental claim was improper as it sought readjudication of the April 2020 Board decision, which is not permitted with regards to Board decisions on motions and there can never be new and relevant evidence with regard to CUE decisions.

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A dismissal means the Board did not decide the issue on its merits — usually because it was withdrawn or had become moot.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