// HOW TO READ THESE NUMBERS

How to read these numbers.

This record is pooled across all art units assigned to the examiner. Pooled allowance rates combine outcomes from different art units and reflect aggregate historical data. The 83% figure describes the proportion of decided applications that were allowed over the examiner's entire record. Aggregate statistics characterize past outcomes and do not predict the outcome of any specific pending application.

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 →
