Decision Summary
The appeal was remanded because the director failed to properly analyze the evidence under the objective regulatory criteria, instead making a subjective determination that the petitioner lacked sustained acclaim. The director's assertion that meeting the criteria was not enough was found to render the regulations meaningless, requiring the case to be returned for a proper evaluation.
