Dismissed
The appeal for service connection for hypertension and obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy was dismissed due to the untimely filing of the Board Appeal request.
The deciding factor: The Veteran did not file a timely Board Appeal request within one year of the RAMP rating decision, and no good cause was shown to extend the time limit.
