dismissed L-1A Case: Construction
Decision Summary
The appeal was rejected because it was improperly filed for two procedural reasons. First, the appeal was filed 41 days after the director's decision, which was beyond the 33-day deadline. Second, the appeal was filed by the beneficiary, who does not have legal standing to file an appeal; only the petitioner is considered an 'affected party' who can file.
