How to Interpret These Judge Statistics

Alison Igoe is listed with the Hyattsville, MD Immigration Court. The headline asylum grant rate shown here is 19.8% based on granted and denied asylum decisions represented in the current dataset.

Among the largest nationality groups shown for this judge, the table highlights El Salvador (393 decided, 24.7% grant rate), Honduras (299 decided, 13.0% grant rate), and Guatemala (274 decided, 8.0% grant rate). Compare these rows with the judge's overall rate because nationality mix can materially change how the headline number should be read.
