Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish the sustained national or international acclaim required for the classification. The evidence for the membership criterion was rejected because the membership was obtained after the petition's filing date, a practice not permitted under established precedent, and the petitioner failed to show that the association required outstanding achievements of its members.
