DISCUSSION: The employment-based immigrant visa petition was denied by the Director, California 
Service Center, and is now before the Administrative Appeals Office on appeal. The appeal will be dismissed. 
The petitioner seeks classification as an employment-based immigrant pursuant to section 203(b)(l)(A) of the 
Immigration and Nationality Act (the Act), 8 U.S.C. § 1153(b)(l)(A), as an alien of extraordinary ability in 
athletics. The director determined that the petitioner had not established the sustained national or international 
acclaim requisite to classification as an alien of extraordinary ability. 
On appeal, counsel merely stated, "The Director, indenying [sic] thepetition [sic], erred as a matter of law and in 
fact, and acted arbitrarily by mischaracterizing the evidence submitted in support of the petition. A detailed 
brief will be submitted in 30 days." Counsel dated the appeal December 10, 2004. As of this date, over six 
months later, the AAO has received nothing further. 
As stated in 8 C.F.R. § 103.3(a)(l)(v), an appeal shall be summarily dismissed if the party concerned fails to 
identify specifically any erroneous conclusion of law or statement of fact for the appeal. 
Counsel here has not specifically addressed the reasons stated for denial and has not provided any additional 
evidence. The appeal must therefore be summarily dismissed. 
ORDER: The appeal is dismissed.
