Examiner Charles C Kuo has allowed 37 of 83 decided applications (45%) in Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security.
Charles C Kuo maintains a public record across 2 art units within Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security). Over 83 disposed applications, the examiner's allowance rate is 45%. This means that of all decided applications in the pooled record, 37 were allowed and 46 were abandoned. The allowance rate reflects outcomes across multiple art units and represents the historical frequency of allowances in this examiner's decided caseload. The record does not indicate pending applications or predict the outcome of any future submission.
This examiner's pooled record aggregates dispositions across 2 art units in TC 2100. The 45% allowance rate is calculated from 83 decided applications and describes past outcomes across that combined caseload. Pooled figures represent the examiner's overall history and are not predictions for any individual application. Art-unit-specific rates, where available separately, may differ from the aggregate. Pooled data provides context on the examiner's historical record but does not forecast any particular 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 →
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 49 decided applications with an interview and 32 without.
Primarily examines neural-network / biological-model computing, and machine learning.
Based on 2 applications — too small a sample to characterize the rejection mix reliably; shown for completeness.
Methodology. This page pools every art unit in which Examiner Charles C Kuo 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: 83 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.
