Dismissed
The Veteran's appeal requests for increased rating and service connection were denied due to untimeliness, as no good cause was shown for the late filing of the Board Appeal request.
The deciding factor: The appeals were not timely filed, and there was no evidence of good cause to extend the time limit for filing an appeal.
