How to Interpret These Judge Statistics

Eugene Pugliese is listed with the Newark, NJ Immigration Court. The headline asylum grant rate shown here is 17.5% based on granted and denied asylum decisions represented in the current dataset.

Nationality-specific rows are shown when enough decided cases are available in the source data. Compare these rows with the judge's overall rate because nationality mix can materially change how the headline number should be read.

Grant rate is calculated as granted / (granted + denied). Other procedural outcomes, including terminated, withdrawn, administratively closed, or removed cases, are tracked separately where available and are not treated as asylum grants.
