dismissed EB-1C Case: Product Development
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed on procedural grounds. The petitioner appealed the director's denial of a motion to reopen/reconsider, but the AAO's review is limited to the correctness of the motion denial, not the merits of the original petition. The AAO found the motion was properly dismissed because the petitioner failed to provide new evidence for a motion to reopen or cite legal error for a motion to reconsider.
