Lonnie Wickliffe A/k/a Mutee El-amin, Claimant-appellant, v. Jesse Brown, Secretary of Veterans Affairs, Respondent-appellee, 1 F.3d 1252 (Fed. Cir. 1993)
Annotate this CaseBefore NEWMAN, Circuit Judge, COWEN, Senior Circuit Judge, and MAYER, Circuit Judge.
ON MOTION
MAYER, Circuit Judge.
ORDER
The Secretary of Veterans Affairs moves to waive the requirements of Fed. Cir. R. 27(d) and to dismiss Lonnie Wickliffe's appeal for lack of jurisdiction. Wickliffe has not filed a response.1
Wickliffe seeks review of a decision of the United States Court of Veterans Appeals summarily affirming the Board of Veterans Appeals' decision that denied Wickliffe's claim of service connection for post-traumatic stress disorder. Wickliffe challenges only factual determinations or the application of a law or regulation to his claim. No issue is raised that falls within the limited jurisdiction of this court under 38 U.S.C. §§ 7292(c), (d) (1)-(2) (Supp.III 1991). See Livingston v. Derwinski, 959 F.2d 224 (Fed. Cir. 1992).
Accordingly,
IT IS ORDERED THAT:
(1) The Secretary's motion to waive the requirements of Fed. Cir. R. 27(d) is granted.
(2) The Secretary's motion to dismiss is granted.
(3) Each side shall bear its own costs.
Wickliffe filed a request for the appointment of counsel. However, the court does not have any procedure to appoint counsel. See Guide for Pro Se Petitioners, and Appellants, p 1
