Examiner Hexing Liu

What the data says.

Hexing Liu maintains a public record in Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security) spanning 2 art units. Across 216 disposed applications, 142 were allowed and 74 were abandoned, yielding an allowance rate of 66%. This pooled figure aggregates the examiner's record across both art units and reflects decided applications only; pending cases are excluded from the calculation. The allowance rate represents the share of disposed applications that resulted in allowance rather than abandonment.

How to read these numbers.

This pooled record aggregates data across multiple art units within TC 2100. The allowance rate and application counts describe the examiner's past record and do not constitute a prediction about any specific application. Pooled figures mask variation that may exist between individual art units. Applicants seeking detail about a particular art unit may reference separate per-art-unit data if available. All figures are historical and correlational only.

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 →
