How to Interpret These Judge Statistics

Daniel A. Morris is listed with the Hartford, CT Immigration Court. The headline asylum grant rate shown here is 9.9% based on granted and denied asylum decisions represented in the current dataset.

Among the largest nationality groups shown for this judge, the table highlights Brazil (1,191 decided, 1.3% grant rate), Guatemala (969 decided, 4.6% grant rate), and Ecuador (891 decided, 6.1% grant rate). Compare these rows with the judge's overall rate because nationality mix can materially change how the headline number should be read.
