dismissed L-1A Case: Military Boot Sales
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to provide sufficient evidence demonstrating that the beneficiary would be employed in a primarily managerial or executive capacity. The record, including low staffing levels and minimal wages paid to other employees, indicated the beneficiary was likely performing the day-to-day operational and sales tasks of the business, rather than directing the management of the organization or a major function.
