Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate eligibility under the required number of regulatory criteria. Specifically for the original contributions criterion, the petitioner's invention of a new bass guitar was not shown to have had a significant impact on the field as a whole, and supporting evidence like testimonial letters were too general or post-dated the petition filing.
