dismissed L-1A Case: Gas Station/Convenience Store
Decision Summary
The motion to reopen and reconsider was dismissed because a prior motion was untimely filed. The petitioner argued that the untimeliness was due to confusion over the correct filing fee after a proposed fee increase was enjoined by a court. The AAO rejected this argument, stating that information on the correct fee was publicly available and the failure to submit the proper fee did not constitute a reasonable excuse for the delay.
