And the asylees aren't ?

Most times, your case's chance of success does not depend on its merits but on the Judge assigned to it. The best case can be denied by a Judge bent on denying certain nationalities or certain types of cases. The most aabaki cases can be approved by a Judge who is compassionate and believes in giving you a second chance.
