Dismissed
The appeal concerning entitlement to service connection for obstructive sleep apnea was dismissed due to the Veteran's simultaneous filing of a Notice of Disagreement and Supplemental Claim Application, which is not allowed.
The deciding factor: The appeal was dismissed because the Veteran attempted to use two different review lanes simultaneously, which is prohibited by law.
