James W. Kinnavy, Claimant-appellant, v. Jesse Brown, Secretary of Veterans Affairs, Respondent-appellee, 9 F.3d 978 (Fed. Cir. 1993)

Annotate this Case
U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit - 9 F.3d 978 (Fed. Cir. 1993) Aug. 26, 1993

Before LOURIE, Circuit Judge, BENNETT, Senior Circuit Judge, and RADER, Circuit Judge.

ON MOTION

LOURIE, Circuit Judge.


ORDER

The Secretary of Veterans Affairs moves to waive Fed. Cir. R. 27(e) and to dismiss James W. Kinnavy's appeal. Kinnavy has not filed a response.

Kinnavy seeks review of an order of the Court of Veterans Appeals affirming the Board of Veterans Appeals decision denying Kinnavy service-connection for certain auditory ailments. Kinnavy 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 a 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 Fed. Cir. R. 27(e) is granted.

(2) The Secretary's motion to dismiss is granted.

(3) Each side shall bear its own costs.
