Examiner Carl G Colin

What the data says.

Carl G Colin maintains a public record in Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security) spanning one art unit. Across 85 disposed applications, 36 were allowed and 49 were abandoned, yielding an allowance rate of 42%. This rate describes the examiner's pooled historical record across all assigned art units and represents the share of decided applications that resulted in allowance. The data reflects outcomes on applications that have reached final disposition; pending applications are excluded from this calculation.

How to read these numbers.

A pooled record aggregates dispositions across all art units assigned to an examiner. The allowance rate shown here—42%—is a backward-looking summary of past outcomes and describes historical frequencies, not predictions about any specific application. Pooled figures smooth variation across different art units and subject-matter areas. This data is descriptive of the past record only and does not forecast outcomes on individual pending cases.

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 →

The record, art unit by art unit.

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.
