dismissed L-1A Case: Marketing
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to overcome the director's two grounds for denial. The petitioner did not establish a qualifying parent-subsidiary relationship with the foreign employer due to contradictory evidence regarding ownership. Furthermore, the petitioner failed to establish that the U.S. new office would employ the beneficiary in a primarily managerial or executive capacity within one year.
