What the data says.

Jason Scott Proctor maintains a public record in Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security). Across a pooled record of 174 disposed applications, Proctor allowed 63 applications and 111 were abandoned, yielding an allowance rate of 36% over the decided count. This record spans a single art unit (2123). The allowance rate represents the ratio of allowed applications to all decided applications—pending matters are excluded from this calculation. The figures reflect historical dispositions and are not predictive of outcomes in any specific application.

// HOW TO READ THESE NUMBERS

How to read these numbers.

This examiner's record is pooled across one art unit. Pooled figures aggregate statistics from all art units under an examiner's name and describe the historical record only. The 36% allowance rate is calculated as allowed applications divided by disposed applications and reflects past dispositions. Pooled statistics are correlational data and are not predictions about any particular application. Art unit assignment, claim complexity, and prosecution history all remain independent variables.

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 →

METHODOLOGY & DISCLOSURES

Methodology. This page pools every art unit in which Examiner Jason Scott Proctor 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: 174 applications.
