Examiner Casey R Garner has allowed 214 of 291 decided applications (74%) in Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security.
Casey R Garner maintains a public record in Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security), covering two art units. Across 291 disposed applications, 214 were allowed and 77 abandoned, yielding an allowance rate of 74%. This rate is computed over decided cases only and excludes pending applications. The examiner's pooled record spans art units 2122 and 2123. Of the 326 total applications on record, 291 have reached final disposition.
This pooled record aggregates data from multiple art units within TC 2100. The allowance rate describes the examiner's historical record of decisions and is not predictive of any specific application's outcome. Pooled figures mask variation across individual art units; granular data by art unit appears separately. Use this overview to understand overall patterns in the examiner's record, not to forecast results in any particular case.
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.
Primarily examines neural-network / biological-model computing, and machine learning.
Allowance rate for applications with an examiner interview versus without one.
A correlation, not proof that interviews cause allowances. Based on 151 decided applications with an interview and 139 without.
Primarily examines neural-network / biological-model computing, and machine learning.
Based on 1 applications — too small a sample to characterize the rejection mix reliably; shown for completeness.
Methodology. This page pools every art unit in which Examiner Casey R Garner 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: 326 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.
