Decision Summary
The motion to reopen and reconsider was dismissed because the petitioner failed to provide new facts that existed at the time of the original filing. The evidence submitted was created after the petition was filed and therefore could not establish that a qualifying relationship existed between the U.S. and foreign entities. The petitioner failed to prove that the joint venture continued after the original restaurant was sold and partners departed.
