Dismissed
The Board dismissed all claims due to concurrent election of review options, which is prohibited. The Veteran had multiple appeals pending for the same issues.
The deciding factor: The dismissal was based on the Veteran's filing of supplemental claims and another appeal without first withdrawing the pending Board appeal, resulting in concurrent election of review options.
