Decision Summary

The motion was denied, upholding the prior dismissal, because the petitioner failed to prove it had secured sufficient physical premises when the petition was filed. The evidence for a purported 'lease sharing' arrangement was found insufficient, lacking key corroboration from the landlord and containing inconsistencies. The petitioner did not provide new facts or arguments to overcome this deficiency or the prior finding that it would be unable to support a managerial position within one year.
