Las Vegas Immigration Court (LVG): Asylum Approval Rates, Judges and Recorded Hearings
505 asylum merits decisions; 12.1% granted (2025-09 to 2026-08). Historical EOIR decisions do not predict an individual case. Judge-code history is not verified personal tenure.
How we estimate
EOIR grant rate means grants divided by grants plus denials for asylum merits decisions, excluding other closures. Rates require at least 2 decisions; rankings require at least 30. Proceedings history can extend to 1951; the first recorded asylum merits month in this import is Dec 1972. Each dataset states its own coverage. Do not interpret proceedings coverage as asylum decision coverage. Reconstructed pending counts may differ from agency totals. Historical judge-code attribution is not verified personal tenure.
