dismissed L-1A Case: Business
Decision Summary
The motion to reopen was rejected primarily because it was untimely, filed nearly five months after the AAO's decision, far exceeding the 30-day limit without a reasonable excuse for the delay. Additionally, the AAO noted that the evidence submitted with the motion did not constitute "new facts" as required, because the documents were either available at the time of the original proceeding or were dated after the petition's filing date.
