Examiner Haresh N Patel has allowed 84 of 130 decided applications (65%) in Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security.
Examiner Haresh N Patel maintains a public record in Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security), spanning one art unit. Across 130 disposed applications, the examiner allowed 84 and abandoned 46, yielding a 65% allowance rate. This rate describes past decisions on applications brought to final action or abandonment and reflects the examiner's historical record across the pooled art-unit portfolio. The allowance rate is calculated from decided applications only and does not include pending matters.
This profile aggregates the examiner's record across all assigned art units within TC 2100. The pooled allowance rate reflects historical outcomes on applications already decided—allowed or abandoned—and is not predictive of any future application's outcome. Aggregate statistics describe patterns in past dispositions. Individual applications are examined on their own merits and facts, independent of pooled historical figures.
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 information retrieval and database structures.

Methodology. This page pools every art unit in which Examiner Haresh N Patel 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: 130 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.
