Dismissed
The appeal of the December 2020 decision granting an apportionment of the Veteran's VA disability compensation benefits was dismissed due to failure to file a timely notice of disagreement.
The deciding factor: The appeal did not conform to the claims processing rules as required by law, specifically failing to submit a timely VA Form 10182 within 60 days of the December 2020 decision.

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A dismissal means the Board did not decide the issue on its merits — usually because it was withdrawn or had become moot.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