Among the largest nationality groups shown for this judge, the table highlights Ecuador (444 decided, 8.1% grant rate), China (166 decided, 47.0% grant rate), and Guatemala (160 decided, 22.5% grant rate). Compare these rows with the judge's overall rate because nationality mix can materially change how the headline number should be read.
