Examiner George C Neurauter Jr has allowed 59 of 105 decided applications in Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security.
George C Neurauter Jr maintains a public record in Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security). His pooled allowance rate is 56% across hundreds of decided applications. This rate represents the proportion of applications that issued as allowed (rather than abandoned) among all applications that reached a final decision in his examined art units. The examiner's record spans a single art unit within TC 2100. This statistic reflects historical outcomes and does not constitute a prediction for any individual application.
A pooled record aggregates outcomes across multiple art units, presenting an examiner's overall allowance rate as a historical average. This aggregate figure describes past decisions and provides context about the examiner's examined portfolio. Pooled statistics do not predict outcomes in any specific application. Different art units within TC 2100 may have distinct prosecution patterns; a separate section of this page details per-art-unit breakdowns.
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.
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 60 without.

Methodology. This page pools every art unit in which Examiner George C Neurauter Jr 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 July 14, 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: 105 applications.
Rejection rates. Each §-rate is the share of this examiner's applications that drew at least one office-action rejection in which that statutory ground appears; applications with no rejection on record are excluded, and because grounds can co-occur the four do not sum to 100%. The art-unit figure beside each is the unweighted mean of the per-examiner rates across the art unit, published for §101 and §103 only. Beside the overall allowance rate we show a benchmark: for a single-art-unit examiner it is exactly that art unit's average, labeled “art-unit average”; for an examiner spanning several art units it is the “weighted peer average” — the per-art-unit averages, weighted by this examiner's application count in each — labeled distinctly because it is a blended figure, not any single art unit's average. Both are built from the same per-art-unit averages the panels show.

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.
