L-1B Dismissed — Aviation (2007): did not establish a qualifying parent-subsidiary

Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish a qualifying parent-subsidiary relationship between the U.S. petitioner and the foreign employer. The evidence showed the foreign entity was a minority shareholder (49%) with a minority of the voting shares (19%). An unsigned, undated 'DRAFT' agreement submitted to prove the foreign entity's control was deemed insufficient evidence.
