Examiner Bharat Barot has allowed 192 of 217 decided applications (88%) in Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security.
Bharat Barot maintains a public record across three art units in Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security). Over 217 disposed applications, the examiner allowed 192 and abandoned 25, resulting in an 88% allowance rate. This record aggregates activity across art units 2151, 2154, and 2155. The allowance rate represents applications decided—those allowed or abandoned—and excludes pending cases. This pooled figure describes the examiner's historical record and is not a prediction of outcomes in any specific application.
A pooled record aggregates an examiner's decisions across multiple art units into a single allowance rate. The 88% figure here combines three separate art units. Aggregate statistics describe past decisions and are correlational, not predictive. They do not indicate how any examiner will treat a specific application. Individual art-unit records, where available, may show variation. Pooled figures are most useful as a summary of historical volume and decision distribution.
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.

Methodology. This page pools every art unit in which Examiner Bharat Barot 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: 217 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.
