Dismissed
The Board dismissed the appeals for a rating in excess of 10 percent for lacunar stroke and special monthly compensation based on housebound status or permanent need of aid and attendance, as they were duplicative appeal streams.
The deciding factor: The duplicate appeal under the instant docket number must be dismissed due to procedural error, as a claimant may not file more than one notice of disagreement for an element of a claim.
