dismissed L-1A Case: Furniture Import And Distribution
Decision Summary
The director initially denied the petition because the record did not demonstrate that the beneficiary would be employed in a primarily managerial or executive capacity, specifically noting the lack of personnel to perform the company's daily functions. The AAO dismissed the appeal, finding that even with new evidence, the petitioner failed to establish the beneficiary would primarily manage the organization rather than perform the day-to-day operational tasks herself.
