dismissed EB-1A Case: Peking Opera
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the evidence provided did not meet the regulatory requirements. The petitioner's awards were deemed local rather than national or international, and evidence of the significance of other prizes was not provided. Furthermore, the petitioner failed to demonstrate that his memberships in associations required outstanding achievement, and the evidence of his role as a judge lacked detail about the level of expertise of those he evaluated.
