TRAC Asylum Approval Rates for Cleveland Immigration Judges (FY2019–FY2024)

Figures reflect TRAC’s judge-level asylum merits outcomes (grant %, other-relief %, denial %). Always double-check TRAC before publishing in case of updates. (Trac Reports)

Practice Pointer:

Outcomes vary by IJ. In lower-grant rooms, front-load corroboration (country experts, psych evaluations, third-party affidavits), scrub filings to avoid pretermission for technical defects, and preserve issues (nexus, PSG, credibility, CAT) for BIA appeal.

How Cleveland Immigration Judges Compare to New York City: Asylum Grant Rates (TRAC FY2019–FY2024)

Why it matters:

Asylum outcomes can vary drastically by judge and location. According to the data compiled by Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse (TRAC) at Syracuse University, Cleveland judges generally approve fewer asylum cases than their New York City counterparts — a key factor when preparing your defense or deciding whether to request a change of venue.

Key Takeaway:

Cleveland judges generally fall between 20 – 43 percent grant rates, while New York City includes both extremely high-grant judges (60 – 90 percent) and a few near-zero grant outliers. The variation underscores the need for tailored preparation and early consultation with an attorney who knows your assigned IJ.

Context and Practical Tips

• National baseline: The overall asylum grant rate nationally hovered around 36 percent in late 2024 (TRAC national report).
• Procedural focus: In Cleveland’s low-grant environment, every technical detail matters — complete forms, translations, pagination, and corroboration.
• Venue strategy: If you’ve moved or have family ties in another jurisdiction, your lawyer can explore a motion to change venue — but only when it reflects your true residence.
• Appeals: Preserve legal issues (nexus, credibility, CAT standard, due process) for appeal to the BIA.
• Preparation: Front-load evidence: expert affidavits, country reports, psychological evaluations, and witness declarations.

Expert Tip:

Before your master hearing, ask your attorney to check your assigned IJ’s TRAC record and build an argument strategy that aligns with that judge’s decision patterns.

Bond and Relief from Removal

If you’re detained, you can request a bond hearing unless barred by law (for certain criminal convictions or “arriving aliens”). Judges weigh flight risk and public safety. See EOIR Bond Guidance.

Common Relief Options

• Asylum / Withholding / CAT: Protection for those fleeing persecution.
• Cancellation of Removal: For LPRs or non-LPRs with long-term residence and qualifying family hardship.
• Adjustment of Status: For those eligible through family or employment petitions.
• Voluntary Departure: Allows departure without a removal order.

Fast Fact:

Many applicants qualify for multiple forms of relief — a lawyer can help layer applications for backup protection.

Why You Need an Experienced Immigration Lawyer

Cleveland’s immigration court has its own culture — local judges, clerks, and ICE attorneys follow patterns that experienced lawyers know intimately.
A veteran lawyer can:

• Predict each judge’s preferences and filing nuances.
• Negotiate with ICE trial attorneys for dismissal or bond.
• File emergency motions before the Cleveland clerk within hours.

Legal representation is strongly recommended in immigration cases due to their complexity. Attorneys and accredited representatives are required to register with EOIR to represent respondents in immigration court.

• Predict each judge’s preferences and filing nuances.
• Negotiate with ICE trial attorneys for dismissal or bond.
• File emergency motions before the Cleveland clerk within hours.

Key Insight:

Without counsel, the odds of winning relief drop sharply — studies show over 80% of unrepresented respondents lose their cases.

For over 30 years, the Herman Legal Group has defended Ohio immigrants in deportation, asylum, and appeal cases.

Recent Legal Developments Creating Challenges

Over the past few months, there have been massive changes in immigration law impacting those in removal proceedings. Many of these changes are violations of Due Process guaranteed by the US Constitution, and is reflective of the war that President Trump is waging against the immigration courts.

1. Pretermission of Asylum Cases

Judges now “pretermit” (dismiss) asylum applications for minor errors — missing signatures or incomplete pages — without hearings. This cuts off due process and has sparked nationwide litigation.

2. ICE Motions to Dismiss and Re-Arrest

ICE attorneys often move to dismiss court cases, then re-arrest respondents for expedited removal under INA § 235(b). These “dismiss and deport” tactics undermine judicial oversight.

3. Bond Jurisdiction Rulings for EWI Entrants

Some IJs now claim no authority to set bond for “entry without inspection” (EWI) cases, a departure from decades of precedent. Federal courts are split on this issue.

4. Third-Country Removals

DHS has resumed removing non-citizens to “safe third countries.” Applicants may be transferred to countries they never entered. Advocacy groups call this a violation of U.S. asylum law.

Fast Fact:

Legal advocates in Cleveland report a 30% increase in summary dismissals since late 2025.

If You Lose Your Immigration Court Hearing

Losing a case is not the end. You have 30 days to file an appeal to the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA).

• Use Form EOIR-26 (Notice of Appeal).
• Pay the fee or submit Form EOIR-26A (Fee Waiver).
• Track appeal status via EOIR BIA Portal.
  Appeals are paper-based; no live hearing unless remanded. If you lose at the BIA, you can petition the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals.

Expert Tip:

Hire counsel experienced with BIA appeals — success requires precise legal briefing and timely filing.

If You Lose Your Immigration Court Case

Losing your case doesn’t always mean “game over.”

• You have 30 days to file a notice of appeal to the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) via Form EOIR-26.
• If you cannot pay the fee, you may request fee waiver via [Form EOIR-26A].
• The BIA reviews the record; no new evidence unless remanded.
• After the BIA, you may pursue a federal appeal (e.g., Sixth Circuit) if you qualify.
  Getting expert appellate counsel is essential — filing errors or missed deadlines will end the chance of relief.

From Cleveland to the Country: Why This Court Matters Nationally

The Cleveland Immigration Court is not just a local venue — it’s a national bellwether. Its backlog, judicial trends, and asylum rulings mirror what’s unfolding across America. Many of its judges are cited in national legal decisions and advocacy reports.

The Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals, which reviews Cleveland cases, usually after the Board of Immigration Appeas, has issued some of the most influential immigration rulings of the past decade.
That means what happens here can shape immigration precedent far beyond Ohio.

Children in the Courtroom: The Invisible Burden

Every week, Cleveland’s judges hear cases involving children — some unaccompanied, some U.S.-born. Most cling to parents or guardians during hearings they don’t understand.

“My daughter kept asking if the judge could take me away,” said one mother outside the courtroom.

The trauma of the process underscores why representation and preparation are critical. Attorneys can request trauma-informed scheduling and interpreter accommodations to protect minors from re-traumatization.

The 10-Minute Miracle (or Nightmare)

Every lawyer who practices in Cleveland has a story of a case saved in the final moments — a document discovered, a motion filed, a judge persuaded.

“The hearing lasted ten minutes — but ten minutes that changed a family’s life,” recalls Richard T. Herman.

For families under threat, those minutes are everything. With guidance, courage, and the right legal help, even last-minute victories are possible.

Cleveland’s Legacy of Welcome

Cleveland’s story is an immigrant story — written in dozens of languages and lived across neighborhoods that still carry the names, foods, and traditions of those who built them. From the steel mills of the Flats to the churches of Slavic Village, the city’s identity has always been shaped by newcomers seeking refuge and opportunity.

In the early 1900s, Slovak, Polish, and Hungarian families settled near St. Theodosius Orthodox Cathedral in Tremont, while Italian and Lebanese immigrants opened corner groceries and bakeries along Mayfield Road in Little Italy. Later waves of Syrian and Mexican laborers, Ukrainian refugees, and Bhutanese and Congolese families transformed Cleveland’s east and west sides into hubs of cultural resilience.

Landmarks of welcome include St. Colman Catholic Church (2027 W. 65th St.), known for immigrant outreach; St. Elias Melkite Catholic Church (8023 Memphis Ave.), which still offers Arabic-language Mass; and AsiaTown (E. 30th–E. 40th Streets), a living example of multicultural renewal.

Today, even amid harsh immigration enforcement policies, that legacy of solidarity continues. The Catholic Charities Migration & Refugee Services on West 38th Street, the Legal Aid Society of Cleveland downtown on Lakeside Avenue, and the Herman Legal Group at 815 Superior Avenue East, Suite 1225, are part of the city’s moral infrastructure — places where immigrants find guidance, legal defense, and hope.

Local faith leaders, volunteer interpreters, and pro bono attorneys often fill the hallways of the Cleveland Immigration Court (801 W. Superior Ave.), quietly affirming that compassion is still part of the city’s civic DNA. Every morning, Ohioans stand shoulder-to-shoulder with strangers facing deportation, offering a simple message: you are not alone.

Key Insight:

Cleveland’s quiet resistance isn’t loud protest — it’s community care, born from the belief that welcoming others makes the city stronger. Every person who walks into the Cleveland Immigration Court joins that century-long story — one of survival, solidarity, and second chances.

Immigrant Population Trends in Cleveland

Cleveland’s immigrant population has changed dramatically over time — but never disappeared.

• Around 1920, nearly 30 % of Cleveland’s residents were foreign-born (source).
• By 1990, that share fell to 4.1 % as industrial decline and suburbanization drove migration (source).
• As of 2022, about 5.67 % of Cleveland’s population — roughly 21,000 people — were foreign-born, rising to 5.9 % (~21,700) by 2023 (source).
• Across Northeast Ohio, including Cuyahoga and surrounding counties, immigrants numbered about 156,800 in 2019 — roughly 5.7 % of the region’s total (source).
• Recent census data show that Cuyahoga County’s 2023–2024 population growth was almost entirely driven by international migration (source).
• In 2024, local leaders noted that more than 5,000 newcomers arrived in a single year — the city’s highest total since 1948 (source).

Fast Fact:

Cleveland’s foreign-born share (≈ 6 %) is below the national average (≈ 14 %), yet its immigrant communities have kept the city’s population stable and sustained its small-business sector for decades.

How Immigrant Communities Shaped Cleveland Politics

Cleveland’s political history is inseparable from its immigrant roots. The city’s most transformative mayors and civic figures rose through neighborhoods built by Slovaks, Croatians, Italians, and Eastern Europeans — proving that political power in Cleveland has always flowed upward from its immigrant base.

• Mayor Ralph J. Perk (1972–1977), the son of Czech and Hungarian immigrants from Slavic Village, drew his power from Cleveland’s ethnic parishes and Eastern European mutual-aid societies. His pragmatic, neighborhood-based politics reflected the values of first-generation families striving for inclusion.
• George V. Voinovich, born to a Serbian father and Slovenian mother, carried that legacy into the 1980s. As mayor (1980–1989), he built multiracial coalitions rooted in the West Side Serbian and Slovenian communities, later becoming governor and U.S. senator. His appeal to ethnic pride and civic unity helped stabilize Cleveland after fiscal crisis.
• Dennis J. Kucinich, the grandson of Croatian immigrants, famously became America’s youngest big-city mayor in 1977. His populist defense of working-class Cleveland — especially immigrant industrial families — defined an entire era of local reform politics.

From the St. Clair–Superior corridor to Broadway–East 55th, generations of immigrant voters have shaped Cleveland’s leadership pipeline. Even today, politicians across Cuyahoga County court the support of new American communities — from Nepali Bhutanese entrepreneurs on the West Side to Congolese and Mexican families rebuilding Clark-Fulton.

Key Insight:

Cleveland’s immigrant neighborhoods didn’t just build factories and churches — they built City Hall. Every generation of newcomers who registered to vote, ran for ward leader, or volunteered at a parish poll shaped the city’s identity as a place where immigrants don’t just arrive — they lead.

Key Insight:

Compassion and community are Cleveland’s quiet form of resistance — and every person who enters this court is part of that story.
