Examiner Corey S Faherty has allowed 1,041 of 1,249 decided applications (83%) in Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security.
Examiner Corey S Faherty maintains a public record in Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security). Across 1,290 total applications, 1,041 have been allowed and 208 abandoned, for a pooled allowance rate of 83% over 1,249 disposed applications. This allowance rate reflects the ratio of allowed to all decided applications and does not include pending cases. The examiner's record spans a single art unit, aggregating outcomes across the technology center's subject matter.
A pooled record aggregates data from all art units an examiner works in, presenting an overall allowance rate and application volume. The 83% figure describes past disposed applications and is not a prediction of any specific application's outcome. Pooled rates mask variation across individual art units and do not account for differences in application complexity, amendment history, or claim scope. Review of the examiner's individual art-unit records provides more granular data.
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 program control and execution.

A correlation, not proof that interviews cause allowances. Based on 229 decided applications with an interview and 1,020 without.
Methodology. This page pools every art unit in which Examiner Corey S Faherty 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: 1,290 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.
