Dismissed
L-1A
L-1A Dismissed — International Trade (2005): did not meet any specific error in the director's decision,
Decision Summary
The appeal was summarily dismissed because the petitioner failed to identify any specific error in the director's decision, instead arguing against a point that was not the basis for the denial. The AAO also noted that, independently, the petitioner failed to meet the requirements for a 'new office' extension, as there was no evidence of staffing, doing business for the previous year, or that the beneficiary would be employed in a primarily managerial capacity.
