Opinion of the Court

RADER, Chief Judge.

The U.S. Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims affirmed the Board of Veterans’ Appeals’ determination that Michael P. Edwards’ October 17, 2007 purported Notice of Disagreement was invalid under pertinent VA regulations. Because Mr. Edwards seeks review of issues of fact and the application of law to fact beyond this court’s statutory jurisdiction, 38 U.S.C. § 7292(d)(2), this court dismisses the appeal.
