Detailed data on decisions by Judge Bartleson were examined for the period covering fiscal years 2017 through 2022. During this period, court records show that Judge Bartleson decided 139 asylum claims on their merits. Of these, he granted asylum for 109, granted 3 other types of relief, and denied relief to 27. Converted to percentage terms, Bartleson denied 19.4 percent and granted 80.6 percent of asylum cases (including forms of relief other than asylum).
I saw this but I was hoping someone had a more personal experience to share. However, thank you!
My master hearing is coming up in July. No date for the individual hearing yet

I think he is not bad. Hopefully it's true
What made you say he isn't bad?

Here are some quote from my net friends who were granted asylum by this IJ:
"Very good, he approved without asking."
“The judge was nice, very nice, and he didn't ask me a single word.”
This might be too much to ask, but what was their reason for referral to immigration court?

NY Asylum office is weird. I don't know why they do not want to approve applications.
Thanks for sharing. I hope this judge’s docket isn’t too large and I get an individual hearing date sooner than later.

Is it like this; judge you get at at Master hearing, same judge will be at individual hearing too?

Anybody has such experience who already had their IMH?

If the judge retires or dies before individual hearing, the judge would be a different one and the outcome is unpredictable.

But in other words, one gets same judge at Master & IMH. Right?

Even if the judge is the same, be careful about the government lawyer, because the government lawyer has the right to appeal to BIA. If the government lawyer is very very bad, a super good judge is not enough to overcome the injustice of a bad government lawyer.
