Dismissed
The appeal of the duty to assist error for service-connected glioma brain tumor is dismissed due to a processing error.
The deciding factor: There was no adverse determination related to the brain tumor condition to appeal in the September 2024 rating decision, as the AOJ did not adjudicate the increased rating claim at that time the Veteran submitted his January 2025 VA Form 10182.
