Examiner Charles J Choi has allowed 328 of 385 decided applications (85%) in Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security.
Charles J Choi maintains a public record in Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security). His pooled record spans a single art unit and covers 396 total applications. Of 385 disposed applications, 328 were allowed and 57 were abandoned, yielding an allowance rate of 85%. The allowance rate reflects only decided applications—pending cases are excluded from this calculation. The record aggregates dispositions across all art units in which the examiner works.
This pooled record aggregates data across all art units in which the examiner works. The allowance rate (85%) and disposal counts describe the examiner's historical record and reflect applications already decided. Aggregate figures do not constitute a prediction of any specific application's outcome. Individual art-unit records, where available, may show variation from these pooled statistics.
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 input/output (I/O) data transfer, and memory access and allocation.

A correlation, not proof that interviews cause allowances. Based on 183 decided applications with an interview and 202 without.
Methodology. This page pools every art unit in which Examiner Charles J Choi 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: 396 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.
