Abstract
This document amends the Department of Veterans Affairs' (VA) Board of Veterans' Appeals Rules of Practice to eliminate the requirement that an appellant must file a timely Substantive Appeal with respect to issues covered in a Supplemental Statement of the Case that were not in the original Statement of the Case. This change is required to conform the Rules of Practice to recent changes in VA's Appeals Regulations.
