Of those 17 disposed applications, 6 were allowed and 11 were abandoned, yielding an allowance rate of 35% over the decided count. The examiner's work spans a single art unit.

// HOW TO READ THESE NUMBERS

How to read these numbers.

This record aggregates all decided applications within the examiner's assigned art unit(s). The allowance rate of 35% describes past dispositions—allowed and abandoned applications—and is calculated only from the decided pool, excluding pending filings. Pooled figures represent historical outcomes and are not predictions of the outcome of any specific future application. Individual art-unit records, if available separately, may show variation.

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 →

METHODOLOGY & DISCLOSURES

Methodology. This page pools every art unit in which Examiner Charles Jeffrey Jones 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: 54 applications.

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.
