Decision Summary

The motion to reconsider a prior dismissal was denied because the petitioner did not establish that the original decision was based on an incorrect application of law or policy. Although the petitioner met three criteria (judging, artistic display, and high salary), the AAO affirmed its final merits determination that the evidence in totality did not demonstrate sustained national or international acclaim, nor that the petitioner is among the small percentage at the very top of his field.
