Dismissed
The veteran's claims for increased disability ratings for left and right knee instability were dismissed because the October 2020 rating decision was not final and appealable, and the veteran requested withdrawal of the claims.
The deciding factor: The October 2020 rating decision was a proposal and not an actual reduction, making it non-appealable; the veteran withdrew the appeal.
