dismissed L-1A Case: Commercial Shipping
Decision Summary
The appeal was summarily dismissed because the petitioner failed to specifically identify any erroneous conclusion of law or statement of fact in the original decision. The AAO also concurred with the director that the petitioner did not establish that the beneficiary, the sole employee, would be employed in a primarily managerial or executive capacity. Furthermore, the petitioner failed to prove a qualifying relationship existed between the U.S. and foreign entities or that the U.S. company was still actively doing business.
