Decision Summary
The motion was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that the beneficiary met the required evidentiary criteria. The AAO affirmed its prior findings that the beneficiary's award was not proven to be nationally recognized, his membership in a coaches' association did not require 'outstanding achievements' as judged by experts, and the published material about him did not appear in professional or major trade publications or other major media.
