Examiner Anteneh B Girma has allowed 239 of 301 decided applications (79%) in Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security.
Anteneh B Girma maintains a public record in Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security) spanning 2 art units. Across 301 disposed applications, the allowance rate is 79%, with 239 allowed and 62 abandoned. The examiner's allowance rate ranges from 59% to 84% across these art units, reflecting variation in outcomes by art-unit assignment. These figures describe the historical record only and do not predict outcomes in any specific application.
This pooled record aggregates the examiner's work across multiple art units within TC 2100. The overall allowance rate and unit count describe the examiner's past record in decided applications. Aggregate statistics do not predict results in individual cases and reflect correlational patterns only. Art-unit-level detail is available separately and may differ materially from the pool.
These are aggregate statistics from this examiner's past public record — not predictions about any specific application. The per-art-unit figures below show how the record varies across art units. Our approach to patent prosecution →

Methodology. This page pools every art unit in which Examiner Anteneh B Girma has a public record within Technology Center 2100. Statistics are computed from publicly available USPTO records, refreshed on a recurring schedule. This page's data was last updated June 25, 2026. The overall allowance rate is total allowed divided by total decided applications (allowed plus abandoned) across all art units — not an average of the per-art-unit rates; pending applications are excluded. Figures are rounded for display. Pooled sample: 301 applications.

These statistics describe past examiner behavior and do not predict the outcome of any particular application. Past results do not guarantee future outcomes. Where this page compares an examiner's allowance rate to an art-unit average, that comparison is a factual description of the public record, not a characterization of any individual examiner's conduct or competence.
