dismissed L-1A Case: Jewelry
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary would be employed in a primarily managerial capacity, as his duties included non-managerial tasks like quality checking, repairs, and routine banking. The AAO also found that the petitioner did not establish the existence of a qualifying relationship between the U.S. company and the foreign employer.
