// HOW TO READ THESE NUMBERS

How to read these numbers.

This pooled record aggregates all art units under the examiner's jurisdiction and reports summary statistics from applications already decided. The allowance rate represents the share of allowed applications among those with final dispositions (allowed or abandoned), excluding pending applications. Aggregate historical figures describe what occurred in past cases and do not predict results in any specific application or provide evidence of patterns in future prosecution.

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 & DISCLOSURES

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: 32 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.
