Examiner Farshad Jason Farhadian has allowed 8 of 46 decided applications (17%) in Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security.
Examiner Farshad Jason Farhadian has a public record spanning 2 art units within Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security). Across 46 disposed applications, 8 were allowed and 38 were abandoned, yielding an allowance rate of 17%. This rate is measured as a percentage of all decided applications—allowed plus abandoned—and does not include pending filings. The record reflects outcomes across multiple art units pooled together.
A pooled record aggregates data from multiple art units and represents the examiner's combined history across those units. The allowance rate and disposal count describe what has occurred in the past and are not predictions about any specific application. Understanding that this figure spans different areas of subject matter is important when evaluating any individual case, which may fall within one or more of the art units represented in the pool.
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 artificial-intelligence and machine-learning methods.

Methodology. This page pools every art unit in which Examiner Farshad Jason Farhadian 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: 46 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.
