Examiner Christopher E Everett has allowed 761 of 899 decided applications (85%) in Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security.
Christopher E Everett's pooled record across Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security) spans 3 art units with 943 total applications. Of 899 disposed applications, 761 were allowed, yielding an 85% allowance rate. The allowance rate ranges from 75% to 93% across these art units. This record aggregates outcomes from multiple art-unit dockets and reflects past dispositions only; it is not a prediction of any specific pending application.
A pooled examiner record aggregates data across multiple art units, obscuring individual unit performance. The overall allowance rate describes historical disposition rates on decided applications and does not predict outcomes on any single case. Allowance-rate ranges show variation across the examiner's art units but do not identify which rate applies to which unit—that detail appears in per-art-unit sections. Pooled figures are correlational, not causal.
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.

Methodology. This page pools every art unit in which Examiner Christopher E Everett 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: 943 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.
