Decision Summary

The motion to reopen was dismissed on procedural grounds because the petitioner failed to submit a required statement about any judicial proceedings. Notwithstanding this defect, the AAO found the motion did not present new facts as required, but rather resubmitted previously provided evidence. The decision affirms the previous denial which found the petitioner failed to meet the evidentiary criteria for an alien of extraordinary ability and had not demonstrated sustained national or international acclaim.
