Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to meet the initial evidentiary requirement of satisfying at least three criteria. The AAO withdrew the Director's favorable findings for the 'published material' and 'authorship of scholarly articles' criteria, concluding the petitioner did not provide objective evidence like copies of the articles or properly certified translations. As a result, the petitioner only satisfied the 'judging' criterion, which was insufficient to establish eligibility.
