Just months after Koelsch’s resignation, on 21 November 2025, Jeremiah Johnson, 52, a judge at the San Francisco immigration court, was having what he described as a normal day.
Johnson had been on the bench since 2017, appointed by then-attorney general Jeff Sessions during the first Trump administration (Koelsch was also a Sessions appointee). According to data from the Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse, he granted asylum in a large share of his cases, a rate significantly higher than the national average.
