Dismissed
The veteran's appeals for TDIU, increased rating for adjustment disorder, compensable rating for erectile dysfunction, and service connection for hearing loss, sleep apnea, and tinnitus were dismissed due to untimely filings.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the veteran did not provide good cause for filing his appeal requests after one year from the date of the rating decision, as he had the ability to file documents within the one-year period and his medical conditions did not prevent him from doing so.
