The examiner's record spans one art unit, pooling his activity within TC 2100. These statistics reflect historical dispositions and do not indicate the outcome of any particular application.

How to read these numbers.

A pooled record aggregates data across all art units assigned to the examiner, presenting a single overall allowance rate and application count. This aggregate describes the examiner's past decisions and is not a prediction about any specific application. The allowance rate is computed only from decided cases (allowed plus abandoned), excluding pending filings. Pooled figures are useful for understanding broad patterns but do not account for variations across individual art units.

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 →
