// HOW TO READ THESE NUMBERS

How to read these numbers.

This record aggregates data across all of the examiner's art units, pooling allowances and abandonments into a single allowance rate. The 46% figure describes the examiner's historical record only—it is not a prediction of any specific application's outcome. Pooled rates average across different art units and subject matters, masking variation within individual units. Individual art-unit records may show different rates. This aggregate data reflects past decisions and does not forecast results in any pending case.

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 →
