How to read these numbers.

This pooled record aggregates all of the examiner's decided applications across their assigned art unit(s). The allowance rate of 40% describes the historical share of allowed applications among all decided cases and is a summary of past dispositions. Aggregate statistics across art units do not constitute a prediction for any specific application. Each art unit may have distinct substantive standards, claim complexity, and applicant populations. The pooled figure is descriptive of the overall record 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 →
