L-1A Dismissed — Retail (2005): did not establish the new U.S
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the new U.S. office would support the beneficiary in a primarily managerial or executive capacity within one year of the petition's approval. The director's initial denial was based on this finding, and the petitioner's appeal did not provide sufficient evidence to overcome it.
