Decision Summary

The Director dismissed a motion to reopen/reconsider on purely procedural grounds, because the petitioner failed to include a statement about whether the case was subject to judicial proceedings. The AAO noted that the petitioner supplied this statement on appeal, curing the defect. Therefore, the AAO withdrew the Director's decision and remanded the case for a new decision on the merits of the motion.
