Dismissed
The appeal was dismissed because the Veteran does not have standing to pursue an appeal on behalf of C.A. for Dependents' Educational Assistance (DEA) benefits prior to December 2, 2020.
The deciding factor: The Veteran lacks legal standing as a claimant in this matter and is not otherwise the proper party to contest the November 2023 AOJ decision that denied C.A.'s claim for DEA benefits prior to December 2, 2020.
