Dismissed
The Board dismissed the veteran's appeals for service connection for a left knee disability, degenerative disc disease of the lumbar spine, and depression due to procedural errors.
The deciding factor: The Veteran filed both a Form 9 and a VA Form 10182 in response to a Statement of the Case, leading to impermissible docketing in both Legacy and AMA systems.
