Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to meet the evidentiary requirements to prove sustained national or international acclaim. The evidence for membership in an association pertained to his company, not him personally, and lacked proof of outstanding achievement requirements. Additionally, the published materials were about the artists he promoted rather than himself, and his role as a judge was for an amateur competition, which was insufficient to demonstrate he is at the very top of his field.
