How to Interpret These Judge Statistics

Andrea Siebert is listed with the North Los Angeles, CA Immigration Court. The headline asylum grant rate shown here is 21.2% based on granted and denied asylum decisions represented in the current dataset.

Among the largest nationality groups shown for this judge, the table highlights China (377 decided, 39.8% grant rate), Guatemala (211 decided, 6.6% grant rate), and Mexico (181 decided, 15.5% grant rate). Compare these rows with the judge's overall rate because nationality mix can materially change how the headline number should be read.
