What the data says.

Christopher D Bryant maintains a public record in Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security). Across 38 disposed applications, the allowance rate is 37%, with 14 applications allowed and 24 abandoned. This rate reflects the examiner's pooled record across a single art unit (2178). The allowance rate describes outcomes on decided applications and does not represent a share of all filings or constitute a prediction for any specific case.

// HOW TO READ THESE NUMBERS

How to read these numbers.

This pooled record aggregates all applications across the examiner's art units, producing an overall allowance rate of 37% over 38 decided cases. Aggregate figures describe historical outcomes and remain constant across all cases. They do not predict results on any individual application, which may be affected by claim scope, prior art, specification quality, and other case-specific factors. Pooled rates are descriptive only.

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 Christopher D Bryant 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: 38 applications.

Lynch LLP is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by the United States Patent and Trademark Office. Examiner statistics are derived from publicly available USPTO data.

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.
