Dismissed
The Board denied the veteran's appeal for an extension of time to file a Board Appeal request, finding it not timely and no good cause shown.
The deciding factor: The notification letter provided adequate instructions on how to obtain or access evidence used in making the decision, and there was no violation of the Veteran's right to a pre-decisional hearing. The veteran did not provide sufficient reason for the late filing.
