Examiner Francisco A Grullon has allowed 425 of 475 decided applications (89%) in Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security.
Francisco A Grullon maintains a public record across two art units in Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security). Over 511 total applications, 425 were allowed and 50 abandoned, yielding 475 disposed applications. The allowance rate—the percentage of decided applications that were allowed—stands at 89% across this pooled record. This figure reflects outcomes in the examiner's assigned art units within the technology center and does not forecast any individual application's outcome.
A pooled record aggregates the examiner's dispositions across multiple art units. The allowance rate and disposed-application count shown here represent historical aggregate data only. They describe past outcomes across different subject areas within TC 2100 and are not predictions about any specific application. Detailed per-art-unit data, where available separately, may provide additional context on outcomes in narrower subject areas.
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 input/output (I/O) data transfer, and memory access and allocation.
Allowance rate for applications with an examiner interview versus without one.
A correlation, not proof that interviews cause allowances. Based on 208 decided applications with an interview and 266 without.
Primarily examines data-processing methods for specific functions, and processing data by its order or content.
Based on 1 applications — too small a sample to characterize the rejection mix reliably; shown for completeness.
Methodology. This page pools every art unit in which Examiner Francisco A Grullon 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: 511 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.
