What the data says.

Jack Kensington Barnett maintains a public record in Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security). His pooled record spans one art unit. Across 46 total applications, 14 were allowed and 3 were abandoned, for a combined disposed count of 17 applications. His allowance rate is 82% over those 17 decided applications. The figure reflects the ratio of allowed to decided cases in his past record and does not forecast outcomes for any pending or future application.

// HOW TO READ THESE NUMBERS

How to read these numbers.

This pooled record aggregates an examiner's decisions across multiple art units (if applicable) into a single allowance-rate figure. The 82% rate describes historical outcomes across 17 decided applications and represents performance data only. Aggregate rates do not predict results for any individual application, which may depend on claim scope, prior art, examiner assignment, and other case-specific factors. Statistics are correlational, not causal.

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 →

// BY ART UNIT

METHODOLOGY & DISCLOSURES

Methodology. This page pools every art unit in which Examiner Jack Kensington Barnett 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: 46 applications.

Lynch LLP is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by the United States Patent and Trademark Office. Examiner statistics are derived from publicly available USPTO data.

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.
