Denied
The Board denied substitution for accrued benefits as the appellant's request was received more than one year after the Veteran's death.
The deciding factor: The request for substitution is not timely as it was received more than one year after the Veteran's death, and there is no evidence of good cause for an extension of time limit to file a request for substitution.
