Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the Petitioner failed to demonstrate that he met the minimum requirement of at least three evidentiary criteria. Although the Director found he met two criteria, the AAO's de novo review determined the evidence for participation as a judge was insufficient and inconsistent. Ultimately, the Petitioner did not meet the initial evidentiary threshold for the extraordinary ability classification.
