How to read these numbers.

This profile aggregates Petranek's record across all art units in which he examines. The figures describe his historical record only—allowance rate, application counts, and disposition data—and are not predictions about any specific application outcome. Pooled data smooths variation across individual art units and provides an overview of past decisions. Individual art-unit breakdowns, where available, may show different patterns and are examined separately.

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 →
