Dismissed
The appeal for recognition of M.M. and J.R. as the Veteran's dependents for purposes of dependency benefits is dismissed because they have already been recognized.
The deciding factor: The issues are moot as the Veteran's dependents have already been recognized, and there is no live controversy to address.
