L-1A Dismissed — Restaurant Administration: did not establish two key points
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish two key points. First, it did not demonstrate that the beneficiary would be employed in a primarily managerial or executive capacity, as the described duties appeared to be more operational and supervisory. Second, the petitioner failed to prove that a qualifying relationship existed between the U.S. organization and the foreign company.
