Dismissed
The appeal for service connection for dermatophytosis (tinea pedis) was dismissed due to the Veteran's failure to file a timely appeal within one year of the November 2017 rating decision.
The deciding factor: The appeal was dismissed because the Veteran did not comply with claims processing rules and failed to present good cause for the untimely submission of his appeal.
