How to Interpret These Judge Statistics
Julia E. Egy is listed with the Sterling, VA Immigration Court. The headline asylum grant rate shown here is 10.7% 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 (532 decided, 5.8% grant rate), Guatemala (386 decided, 2.6% grant rate), and El Salvador (321 decided, 18.1% grant rate).
