Examiner Eron J Sorrell has allowed 303 of 391 decided applications (77%) in Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security.
Eron J Sorrell holds a public record in Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security) spanning 2 art units. His pooled record covers 391 disposed applications: 303 allowed and 88 abandoned. The allowance rate across decided applications is 77%. This aggregate figure reflects outcomes across all art units in which he has examined, pooled together, and describes his historical record. The rate is calculated from applications with final dispositions only and does not include pending matters.
This pooled record aggregates examination outcomes across multiple art units within TC 2100. The allowance rate of 77% represents the share of decided applications that issued, calculated from the total disposed count. Aggregate figures describe the historical record and are not predictions about any specific application. Because this data pools different art units, it reflects the examiner's overall practice across that technology center but does not isolate performance in any single art unit.
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 →
Each section benchmarks this examiner against that art unit's average. Figures are this examiner's own public record within the art unit; the overall rate above pools them.
Primarily examines data-processing methods for specific functions, and processing data by its order or content.
Allowance rate for applications with an examiner interview versus without one.
A correlation, not proof that interviews cause allowances. Based on 45 decided applications with an interview and 344 without.
Primarily examines interconnection and data transfer between memory, I/O, and processing units, and program control and execution.
Based on 2 applications — too small a sample to characterize the rejection mix reliably; shown for completeness.
Methodology. This page pools every art unit in which Examiner Eron J Sorrell 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: 391 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.
