dismissed L-1A Case: Shoe Wholesale
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary would be employed primarily in a managerial or executive capacity. The director determined that given the small number of employees and the nature of the business, the beneficiary would be performing the day-to-day operational tasks of the company rather than managing other supervisory or professional staff.
