Summary:

Took residence in California. The CEIC argued that an E-2 visa did not allow claimant to legally accept employment. Contrary information from a US attorney, current practice at the bank employing her husband. Case allowed by Board. No error of law nor mistake of principle. The principle appears to be well established that proof of foreign law in proceedings before the courts must be made by an expert in that law, who must be a professional lawyer or the holder of an official position requiring legal knowledge or one who had conducted special studies in that law.
