Context
In this case, the beneficiary was asked to review a manuscript for scientific journal and provide a review. The beneficiary also submitted four other requests to review manuscripts during a time period of about 10 years. The petitioner argued that this request to review manuscripts qualified him as judge in his field of endeavor.
AAO Decision
The AAO points out that the beneficiary provided no evidence of actually completing the manuscript reviews and therefore does not meet the plain language of the criterion.
*Cases Cited
AAO cited no case law at all to support this evidentiary construction.
