Examiner Getente A Yimer maintains a public record in Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security). Across 730 total applications, 687 have been disposed (decided). Of those disposed applications, 614 were allowed and 73 were abandoned, yielding an allowance rate of 89%. The examiner's work spans a single art unit.

This pooled record aggregates dispositions across all art units where the examiner works. The allowance rate (89%) describes the share of decided applications that were allowed, measured against 687 disposed cases. Aggregate figures reflect past record only and are not predictions for individual applications. Different art units may carry different approval patterns; consult detailed per-art-unit data for subject-matter-specific context.

A correlation, not proof that interviews cause allowances. Based on 30 decided applications with an interview and 657 without.
Methodology. This page pools every art unit in which Examiner Getente A Yimer 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: 730 applications.
