dismissed L-1A Case: Hotel Management
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 initial denial concluded that the duties described did not meet the statutory definitions, and the evidence on appeal was insufficient to overcome this finding, particularly regarding the staffing of the new operation and the beneficiary's day-to-day responsibilities.
