Dismissed
The Veteran's appeals for service connection for psychiatric disability, including PTSD, and right foot calcaneal spur were dismissed due to a procedural issue with his previous Legacy appeal.
The deciding factor: The decision was based on the fact that the Veteran had an active Legacy appeal at the time he attempted to perfect his appeal under the Appeals Modernization and Improvement Act (AMA).
