Examiner Cheryl Renea Lewis has allowed 1,433 of 1,515 decided applications (95%) in Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security.
Cheryl Renea Lewis has a public record of 1,538 total applications across 4 art units in Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security). Of 1,515 disposed applications, 1,433 were allowed, yielding a 95% allowance rate. The examiner's allowance rate varies across art units, ranging from 79% to 98%. This pooled record spans art units 2155, 2166, 2167, and 2177, and reflects outcomes on applications that have been decided (allowed or abandoned), excluding any pending filings.
This pooled record aggregates data across multiple art units within TC 2100, representing the examiner's combined historical outcomes. The overall allowance rate of 95% describes past dispositions and is not a prediction of any specific application's outcome. The range of allowance rates (79% to 98%) reflects variation across different art units; individual application outcomes depend on claim content, prior art, and examination specifics. Pooled statistics describe aggregate history, not future 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 →

Methodology. This page pools every art unit in which Examiner Cheryl Renea Lewis 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: 1,538 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.
