Examiner Bao G Tran has allowed 119 of 288 decided applications (41%) in Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security.
Examiner Bao G Tran maintains a public record across 3 art units within Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security). Over 288 disposed applications, the examiner allowed 119, for an overall allowance rate of 41%. This rate reflects outcomes across the examiner's pooled art-unit portfolio. The allowance rate ranges from 36% to 43% across these art units, indicating variation in allowance rates among the different subject areas the examiner covers within TC 2100.
A pooled record aggregates data from multiple art units into a single profile. The overall allowance rate and application counts are sums across all art units the examiner works in. These figures describe the examiner's historical record and are not predictions about any specific application. Individual art-unit records, where available separately, show how outcomes vary by subject matter within the technology center.
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 →
Each section benchmarks this examiner against that art unit's average. Figures are this examiner's own public record within the art unit; the overall rate above pools them.
Primarily examines information retrieval and database structures.
Allowance rate for applications with an examiner interview versus without one.
A correlation, not proof that interviews cause allowances. Based on 141 decided applications with an interview and 102 without.
Primarily examines information retrieval and database structures.
Based on 42 applications — too small a sample to characterize the rejection mix reliably; shown for completeness.

Methodology. This page pools every art unit in which Examiner Bao G Tran 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: 288 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.
