How to Interpret These Judge Statistics
Ghunise L. Coaxum is listed with the Atlanta, GA Immigration Court. The headline asylum grant rate shown here is 0.6% 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 (1,320 decided, 0.2% grant rate), Guatemala (1,134 decided, 0.1% grant rate), and Venezuela (686 decided, 1.2% grant rate).
