Dismissed
The Board dismissed the Appellant's challenges to the propriety of the creation of an overpayment and the validity of its amount, as well as her claim for a waiver of the recoupment of the overpayment due to lack of jurisdiction.
The deciding factor: The record does not indicate that the AOJ or COWC have made any decisions on these claims, making them unripe for appeal.

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A dismissal means the Board did not decide the issue on its merits — usually because it was withdrawn or had become moot.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