// READING THIS EXAMINER

What the data says.

Duy T Diep maintains a public record in Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security). Across 66 total applications, 26 have been disposed (decided). Of those 26 disposed applications, 8 were allowed and 18 were abandoned, yielding an allowance rate of 31% over the decided pool. The examiner's record spans a single art unit, 2123, pooled within TC 2100. This allowance rate describes the examiner's historical output and does not predict any individual application's outcome.

// HOW TO READ THESE NUMBERS

How to read these numbers.

A pooled record aggregates all applications across an examiner's assigned art units into one overall profile. The allowance rate—here 31%—is computed only from decided applications (allowed plus abandoned), excluding pending cases. This figure characterizes the examiner's past decisions and is not a forecast of how any particular application will be examined or decided. Different art units and technology areas often carry distinct allowance-rate norms.

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 Duy T Diep 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: 66 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.
