Decision Summary

The motion was denied, upholding the prior dismissal of the appeal, because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary would be employed in a qualifying managerial or executive capacity. The evidence did not sufficiently differentiate the proposed CEO duties from the beneficiary's prior non-managerial role, nor did it prove he would primarily delegate non-qualifying work given the company's small size. The petitioner also did not clearly articulate the specific essential function the beneficiary would manage.
