Dismissed
The Board dismissed the appeals for a compensable rating for bilateral hearing loss, an increased rating for tinnitus, service connection for vertigo, and service connection for a right ankle disability due to untimely VA Form 10182 submissions without good cause shown.
The deciding factor: The appeals were dismissed due to non-jurisdictional procedural defects related to untimeliness of the notice of disagreement forms.
