We are particularly interested in applicants from three Central American countries: Guatemala, Honduras, and El Salvador. Starting in 2012 and reaching a culmination during the summer of 2014, a surge of many unaccompanied minors from these countries arrived at the United States - Mexico border seeking asylum.
We use as an independent variable in our study the percentage of cases heard by the judge where the applicants are represented by an attorney........[citing TRAC research].
