Alejandro P. Tablazon, Claimant-appellant, v. Jesse Brown, Secretary of Veterans Affairs, Respondent-appellee, 1 F.3d 1253 (Fed. Cir. 1993)

Annotate this Case
U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit - 1 F.3d 1253 (Fed. Cir. 1993) June 15, 1993

Before LOURIE, Circuit Judge, FRIEDMAN, Senior Circuit Judge, and CLEVENGER, Circuit Judge.

ON MOTION

ORDER

CLEVENGER, Circuit Judge.


The Secretary of Veterans Affairs moves to waive the requirements of Fed. Cir. R. 27(d) and to dismiss Alejandro P. Tablazon's appeal for lack of jurisdiction. Tablazon has not filed a response to the motion to dismiss, but has filed a "Motion for Conclusion" wherein he submits additional documents pertaining to the case.

Tablazon seeks review of a decision of the United States Court of Veterans Appeals summarily affirming the Board of Veterans Appeals' decision that denied Tablazon's claim of eligibility for nonservice-connected disability pension benefits. Tablazon challenges only factual determinations or the application of a law or regulation to his claim, or raises a legal question that does not contest the validity of a statute or regulation, or the interpretation of a constitutional or statutory provision or a regulation. 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) Tablazon's "Motion for Conclusion," treated as a motion to file an appendix to his brief, is granted.

(4) Each side shall bear its own costs.
