Dismissed
The appeal regarding CUE in the June 2014 rating decision to deny service connection for cervical and thoracic spine disabilities was dismissed due to an improper concurrent election of review.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the Veteran's election of filing a higher-level review request prevented her from seeking a concurrent review by the Board, which is prohibited under the Appeals Modernization Act.
