Among the largest nationality groups shown for this judge, the table highlights Mexico (219 decided, 0.5% grant rate), Peru (216 decided, 0.0% grant rate), and Colombia (88 decided, 0.0% grant rate). Compare these rows with the judge's overall rate because nationality mix can materially change how the headline number should be read.
