Dismissed
The appeal for service connection of BPH was dismissed because the veteran filed both a supplemental claim and a board appeal simultaneously, which is not allowed.
The deciding factor: The Veteran submitted both a Supplemental Claim Application and a Board Appeal Notice of Disagreement concurrently, violating the rules that prohibit simultaneous review options.
