How to Interpret These Judge Statistics

Robert K. Lundberg is listed with the Charlotte, NC Immigration Court. The headline asylum grant rate shown here is 8.9% 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 (279 decided, 7.2% grant rate), Guatemala (251 decided, 3.2% grant rate), and El Salvador (235 decided, 9.8% grant rate). Compare these rows with the judge's overall rate because nationality mix can materially change how the headline number should be read.
