Dismissed
The appeal was dismissed due to a procedural defect in the Veteran's January 2022 VA Form 10182, which resulted from a prohibited concurrent election under VA claims processing rules.
The deciding factor: The appeal was dismissed because the Veteran filed a new claim for the same issues that were pending at the time, resulting in a procedural defect.
