// HOW TO READ THESE NUMBERS

How to read these numbers.

This pooled record aggregates two art units and reflects historical dispositions. The 92% allowance rate describes past outcomes across decided applications and is not predictive of any specific application's outcome. Aggregate figures smooth variations that may exist within individual art units. Applicants consulting this examiner's per-art-unit record will find detail specific to each art unit; the pooled figure here provides an overview of the overall disposition pattern.

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 Dieu Minh T Le 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.

Figures are rounded for display. Pooled sample: 1,002 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.

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.
