dismissed L-1A Case: Equestrian Products
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary would be employed in a primarily managerial or executive capacity. The director found the evidence of staffing insufficient, as the petitioner only employed the beneficiary and his spouse, and noted that the beneficiary's described duties appeared to be operational rather than qualifying managerial or executive functions.
