How to Interpret These Judge Statistics

Among the largest nationality groups shown for this judge, the table highlights Mexico (948 decided, 17.5% grant rate), Guatemala (818 decided, 2.7% grant rate), and El Salvador (583 decided, 8.6% grant rate). Compare these rows with the judge's overall rate because nationality mix can materially change how the headline number should be read.
