Examiner Dung C Dinh has allowed 29 of 40 decided applications (73%) in Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security.
Examiner Dung C Dinh maintains a public record in Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security). Across a pooled span of 2 art units, the examiner has disposed of 40 applications. Of those 40 decided applications, 29 were allowed and 11 were abandoned, yielding an allowance rate of 73%. This rate reflects the proportion of allowed applications among all disposed cases in the examiner's record and does not forecast outcomes on any pending or future application.
This pooled record aggregates data from multiple art units within TC 2100 and presents overall statistics from the examiner's past decisions. The 73% allowance rate describes historical outcomes across all disposed applications in those units combined. Aggregate figures reflect what has occurred, not what will occur on any individual case. Per-art-unit breakdowns, where available, may show variation from the overall pooled rate.
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. This page pools every art unit in which Examiner Dung C Dinh 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: 40 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.
