How to Interpret These Judge Statistics

Philip P. Taylor is listed with the Atlanta, GA Immigration Court. The headline asylum grant rate shown here is 0.9% based on granted and denied asylum decisions represented in the current dataset.

Among the largest nationality groups shown for this judge, the table highlights Guatemala (2,272 decided, 0.4% grant rate), Mexico (1,408 decided, 0.8% grant rate), and Honduras (1,139 decided, 0.5% grant rate). Compare these rows with the judge's overall rate because nationality mix can materially change how the headline number should be read.
