2 RATLIFF v. MCDONOUGH
General Counsel, United States Department of Veterans
Affairs, Washington, DC.
______________________
Before HUGHES, MAYER, and STOLL, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM.
Henry Ratliff appeals a decision of the Court of Appeals
for Veterans Claims. The Veterans Court affirmed a deci-
sion of the Board of Veterans’ Appeals, denying Mr. Rat-
liff’s claims for disability compensation due to tinnitus. On
appeal, Mr. Ratliff argues that the Veterans Court misap-
plied its own precedent regarding credibility determina-
tions and erred in making its harmless error
determination. Because Mr. Ratliff’s arguments both in-
volve an application of law to fact, they are beyond our ju-
risdiction to consider. 38 U.S.C. § 7292(d)(2); King v.
Shinseki, 700 F.3d 1339, 1345–46 (Fed. Cir. 2012). Accord-
ingly, we dismiss this appeal for lack of jurisdiction.
DISMISSED
No costs.
