Decision Summary
The motion was dismissed on procedural grounds. The petitioner had previously failed to submit an appeal brief directly to the AAO as required, instead sending it to the wrong USCIS address, which resulted in the initial appeal being summarily dismissed. The AAO found that the petitioner did not meet the requirements for a motion to reopen or reconsider because its prior decision was legally and procedurally correct based on the record at the time.
