Decision Summary

The appeal was rejected because it was improperly filed as a second appeal to the AAO regarding a prior AAO decision. The AAO does not exercise appellate jurisdiction over its own decisions, and the petitioner's proper recourse would have been to file a motion to reopen or reconsider.
