Dismissed
All appeals for higher ratings, decreased ratings, and service connection claims have been dismissed as the Veteran has already appealed these issues to the Board.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's attempts to appeal the same decisions through multiple Board Appeal requests serve no purpose and result in unnecessary delays.
