v.
Edward J. DERWINSKI, Secretary of Veterans Affairs,
Respondent-Appellee.

No. 92-7023.

United States Court of Appeals, Federal Circuit.

July 15, 1992.
Rehearing Denied Aug. 25, 1992.

Before NIES, Chief Judge, and MAYER and LOURIE, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM.

1

Appellant seeks review of the judgment of the United States Court of Veterans Appeals affirming the denial of a claim for service-connected disability. Appellant 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 which falls within the jurisdiction of this court under 38 U.S.C. §§ 7292(c), (d)(1)-(2). Accordingly, the appeal is dismissed. See Livingston v. Derwinski, 959 F.2d 224 (Fed.Cir.1992).
