Dismissed
The appeal of the proposed decrease in evaluation of bladder cancer from 100 percent to 20 percent and the appeal for service connection for a kidney condition were both dismissed due to untimely notice of disagreement.
The deciding factor: The appeals were dismissed as they did not identify specific errors of fact or law, and the notice of disagreement was submitted outside the one-year timeframe allowed by VA regulations.
