Examiner James J Lee has allowed 203 of 252 decided applications (81%) in Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security.
James J Lee maintains a public record in Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security). Across 252 disposed applications, 203 were allowed and 49 were abandoned, yielding an 81% allowance rate. The examiner's record spans a single art unit. This pooled figure represents the ratio of decided applications (allowed plus abandoned) and reflects the historical distribution of outcomes across the examiner's caseload in this technology center. The allowance rate does not predict outcomes in any individual application.
This profile aggregates the examiner's record across all art units in which they work. The 81% allowance rate is a historical summary of decided cases—allowed plus abandoned applications—and describes past outcomes only. Pooled figures mask variation that may exist within individual art units. This aggregate record is not a prediction of how any specific application will be examined or decided.
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 program control and execution.
Allowance rate for applications with an examiner interview versus without one.
A correlation, not proof that interviews cause allowances. Based on 190 decided applications with an interview and 62 without.
Methodology. This page pools every art unit in which Examiner James J Lee 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: 252 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.
