Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary was employed abroad in a managerial or executive capacity. The petitioner consistently described the beneficiary's role as a software engineer and argued he qualified as a 'specialized knowledge professional,' which is irrelevant for an L-1A petition, instead of providing evidence of managerial or executive duties.
