Decision Summary
The motions to reopen and reconsider were dismissed primarily on procedural grounds, as the petitioner did not establish that the prior summary dismissal was erroneous or based on an incorrect application of law. The AAO also noted that even if the merits were considered, the evidence still failed to demonstrate that the petitioner's award was for excellence in his field or that the publications featuring his work qualified as major media.
