How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • concluding that the filing of a motion for substitution, which was accompanied by the veteran’s death notice, qualified as an informal claim for accrued benefits
  • holding that RO denial of service connection could not be collaterally attacked because it was subsumed by Board decision on direct appeal
  • holding that veterans’ claims under chapter 11, “Compensation for Service-Connected Disability or Death,” of title 38, U.S.Code, do not survive their deaths
  • holding that timely filing of NOA rendered nonfinal the BVA decision that was subject of appeal
  • holding that informal claim requirements were satisfied by serving documents on the Secretary's litigation representatives
  • holding that substitution by party claiming accrued benefits under 38 U.S.C. § 5121(a) is not permissible in this Court where appellant-veteran dies while BVA denial is “pending” here on appeal
