Dismissed
The appeal for service connection of a back condition and right ankle condition was dismissed because the issues were already resolved in favor of the veteran.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's appeal is dismissed as it results from a prohibited concurrent election under the modernized review system, also known as the Appeals Modernization Act (AMA), and is otherwise moot.
