Decision Summary
Although the AAO agreed that the petitioner met three evidentiary criteria (authorship, leading role, and judging), the appeal was dismissed on final merits. The AAO determined that the petitioner's accomplishments, including drafting a regional law in Spain, did not establish the sustained national or international acclaim necessary to prove she is one of the small percentage at the very top of her field.
