How to Interpret These Judge Statistics

Kuyomars Q. Golparvar is listed with the Baltimore, MD Immigration Court. The headline asylum grant rate shown here is 6.9% based on granted and denied asylum decisions represented in the current dataset.

Among the largest nationality groups shown for this judge, the table highlights Honduras (757 decided, 3.0% grant rate), Guatemala (565 decided, 3.4% grant rate), and El Salvador (428 decided, 4.2% grant rate). Compare these rows with the judge's overall rate because nationality mix can materially change how the headline number should be read.
