Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because, despite meeting the minimum threshold of three evidentiary criteria, the AAO conducted a final merits determination and found the evidence insufficient. The record, including press articles that were over a decade old and judging experience that was not shown to be exceptional, did not demonstrate sustained national or international acclaim or that the petitioner had risen to the very top of his field.
