Examiner James K Trujillo has allowed 105 of 161 decided applications (65%) in Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security.
James K Trujillo maintains a public record spanning 5 art units within Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security). Across 161 disposed applications, 105 were allowed, yielding a 65% allowance rate. The record covers 165 total applications, with 56 abandoned. The examiner's work spans art units 2116, 2151, 2157, 2159, and 2185. This pooled figure aggregates decisions across multiple art units and describes the historical record without predicting outcomes in any specific case.
A pooled record aggregates an examiner's decisions across multiple art units, producing a single allowance rate and application count. The 65% allowance rate reflects 105 allowed applications among 161 decided cases and describes the past record only—it is not a prediction of any specific application's outcome. Differences in allowance rates among individual art units may exist; those are available in the per-art-unit breakdown. Pooled figures provide context for an examiner's overall record in the technology center.
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 control or regulating systems.
Allowance rate for applications with an examiner interview versus without one.
A correlation, not proof that interviews cause allowances. Based on 23 decided applications with an interview and 111 without.
Primarily examines information retrieval and database structures.
Based on 12 applications — too small a sample to characterize the rejection mix reliably; shown for completeness.

Methodology. This page pools every art unit in which Examiner James K Trujillo 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: 165 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.
