                           __________________________

Before NEWMAN, MAYER, and LINN, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM.

         Cathleen E. Golden appeals the final judgment of the United States Court of

Appeals for Veterans Claims, which dismissed her appeal from the Board of Veterans’

Appeals for lack of jurisdiction based on the failure to timely file a notice of appeal.

Golden v. Principi, No. 04-1385 (Vet. App. Mar. 16, 2005).      In so doing, the court

rejected her equitable tolling argument. We vacate the court’s judgment and remand

the case for reconsideration in light of Barrett v. Nicholson, 466 F.3d 1038 (Fed. Cir.

2006).
