The rise in reprieves from immigration judges in Arizona follows a trend at immigration courts across the country.
The number of people who had their cases terminated or were granted relief accounted for 24 percent of the approximately 229,000 cases nationwide last fiscal year, up from 19 percent the previous year and 14 percent in 2005, according to figures compiled by the Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse. The Syracuse University-based organization, commonly known as TRAC, gathers, analyzes and distributes data on federal enforcement, staffing and spending.
