Dismissed
The Board dismissed the appeal of the proposed severance of service connection for left knee patellofemoral pain syndrome and left knee instability because the April 2025 rating decision was not a final decision.
The deciding factor: The April 2025 rating decision was merely a proposal, not a final decision, as it reserved all factual and legal questions relevant to the claim for adjudication at a later date.
