Dismissed
The appeals for service connection for a bilateral foot disorder and a bilateral eye disorder were dismissed due to procedural defects.
The deciding factor: There was a procedural defect in the filing of the Veteran's appeal under the Appeals Modernization Act (AMA) system, as the claims have not been addressed in the first instance in an AMA rating decision by the Agency of Original Jurisdiction (AOJ).
