What the data says.

Brett P Lohmeier maintains a public record in Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security). Across 21 disposed applications, 6 were allowed and 15 were abandoned, yielding an allowance rate of 29%. This rate is calculated from decided applications only and does not include pending matters. The examiner's record spans a single art unit within TC 2100, providing a pooled view of activity in this subject area. The figures reflect historical dispositions and serve as a factual summary of past actions on applications assigned to this examiner.

// HOW TO READ THESE NUMBERS

How to read these numbers.

A pooled record aggregates data across all art units assigned to an examiner. The allowance rate—here 29% over 21 decided applications—describes the examiner's historical pattern and is not a prediction of any specific application's outcome. Because this record spans only one art unit, the pooled figures and art-unit figures are identical. Aggregate statistics reflect past dispositions and do not indicate how any individual application will be examined or decided.

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 →
