Title 32 - National Defense
(a) A claimant may appeal the final denial of the claim. The claimant sends the request, in writing, to the settlement authority within a reasonable time following the final denial. Sixty days is considered a reasonable time, but the settlement authority may waive the time limit for good cause. (b) Upon receipt of the appeal, the original settlement authority reviews the appeal. (c) Where the settlement authority does not reach a final agreement on an appealed claim, he or she sends the entire claim file to the next higher settlement authority, who is the appellate authority for that claim. (d) The decision of the appellate authority is the final administrative action on the claim.
