What these figures are, and what they are not

None of this measures how this judge decides. Represented and unrepresented applicants have very different outcomes and a judge’s mix of the two is not the judge’s doing; so is the share of their docket that is detained, and detention courts grant asylum at a fraction of the rate other courts do. EOIR publishes representation in a table this site has not loaded, and nothing here adjusts for either.

A grant rate is over decisions, not over applications. Applications that were abandoned, withdrawn, administratively closed, transferred or not adjudicated are counted separately below and are in neither side of the rate. Across EOIR’s whole file there are more of those than there are grants and denials together.

Proceedings, not people, and a case can carry several. The figures below count proceedings and asylum applications, which are both larger than the number of people involved. Pending is a snapshot as of 2026-09-01 and moves every month.

Cases, decisions and backlog

2
Proceedings completed, FY2018–2022: 0.0% decided in absentia; 0
Proceedings pending at 2026-09: Not ranked
Asylum grant rate: only 0 decided, under the 100 a rate needs here

This judge decided 0 asylum applications in the five fiscal years to 2022 — 0 granted and 0 denied. That is below the 100 this site needs before it will publish a rate, because at a hundred decisions the interval around one is already about nine points wide. A further 1 ended neither way.
