Decision Summary

The motion was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that the prior decision was incorrect regarding the 'leading or critical role' criterion, as the evidence did not show his role was critical for the entire organization. The petitioner also failed to provide sufficient new evidence for the 'high salary' criterion, as financial documents were inconsistent, lacked source documentation, and were compared against unreliable salary data.
