How to Interpret These Judge Statistics

Gary L. Bergosh is listed with the New Orleans, LA Immigration Court. The headline asylum grant rate shown here is 8.2% based on granted and denied asylum decisions represented in the current dataset.

Among the largest nationality groups shown for this judge, the table highlights Mexico (41 decided, 12.2% grant rate), Honduras (35 decided, 2.9% grant rate), and Venezuela (35 decided, 5.7% grant rate). Compare these rows with the judge's overall rate because nationality mix can materially change how the headline number should be read.
