Dismissed
The appeal for service connection of sleep apnea was dismissed because the veteran did not file a timely VA Form 10182 Notice of Disagreement.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's VA Form 10182 was filed more than one year after the last decision on the claim and referenced a non-existent decision.
