DISCUSSION: The Director, Vermont Service Center, denied the petition for a nonirnmigrant visa. The 
matter is now before the Administrative Appeals Office (AAO) on appeal. The AAO will dismiss the appeal. 
The petitioner filed this nonimmigrant visa petition seelung to extend the employment of its president as an L- 
1 A nonimmigrant intracompany transferee pursuant to section 1 O 1(a)(15)(L) of the Immigration and 
Nationality Act (the Act), 8 U.S.C. 8 1101(a)(15)(L). The petitioner, a Florida corporation, is a provider of 
background music. The petitioner has employed the beneficiary in L-1A status since 2002 and now seeks to 
extend his status for one additional year. 
The director denied the petition on December 31, 2007, concluding that the beneficiary would not be 
employed in the United States in a primarily managerial or executive capacity. On appeal, counsel for the 
petitioner objects to the director's determination and asserts that the beneficiary will be performing primarily 
executive duties. 
A review of U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services records indicates that ths beneficiary is also the 
beneficiary of an approved employrnent-based immigrant visa petition filed by the petitioner. The beneficiary 
adjusted status to that of a U.S. permanent resident as of March 14, 2008. While the petitioner has not 
withdrawn the appeal in this proceeding, it would appear that the beneficiary is presently a lawful permanent 
resident and the issues in this proceeding are moot. Therefore, this appeal is dismissed. 
ORDER: 
 The appeal is dismissed as moot.
