Nearly 7,000 deportation cases in Georgia to be reviewed for possible dismissal
By Jeremy Redmond


In Georgia, the government has just seven immigration judges. That works out to nearly 1,000 cases per judge, based on the Justice Department’s most recent count. Meanwhile, it takes 353 days on average for a case to be resolved in Atlanta’s immigration courts, according to a study by Syracuse University's Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse, a research organization that monitors the federal government. Nationwide, the average is 302.
