dismissed L-1A Case: Marble Import/Distribution
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary's role as president would be primarily managerial or executive in nature. The director found, and the AAO agreed, that the described duties, which included researching products, dealing with customs, and supervising stock, were more indicative of day-to-day operational tasks rather than high-level management and policy-making.
