How to read these numbers.

This pooled record aggregates two separate art units within TC 2100. The 65% allowance rate and related figures describe the examiner's historical dispositions across both units combined. Aggregate statistics do not predict outcomes for any particular application and mask variation that may exist between individual art units. Detailed per-art-unit records, where available, provide more granular information.

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 →
