Concord Immigration Court - Asylum Decision Statistics

Over the trailing 12 months, the Concord Immigration Court granted asylum in 2.3% of decided cases. The fiscal year 2024 (Oct 2023 – Sep 2024) court-wide average was 67.6%. The two numbers may differ because policy and caseload shifts can move rates significantly year-over-year.

Based on the most recent FOIA-released EOIR data, 37 immigration judges are listed as actively sitting at the Concord Immigration Court with asylum case volume in the last 24 months. The full judge roster, each with their individual grant rate, appears below.

The Concord Immigration Court has issued 9,678 recorded asylum decisions across the full FOIA-released dataset. This includes both grants and denials but excludes administrative outcomes (cases dismissed, terminated, or closed without a merits ruling).

Grant rate = (cases with case_outcome of "Relief Granted") divided by (cases with case_outcome of "Relief Granted" or "Remove"). Cases closed administratively - dismissed, terminated, voluntary departure - are excluded from the denominator. This is the standard methodology used by TRAC Immigration (Syracuse) and the Deportation Data Project (UC Berkeley).
