Examiner Joanne Gonzales Macasiano has allowed 230 of 335 decided applications (69%) in Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security.
Joanne Gonzales Macasiano maintains a public record spanning 2 art units in Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security). Across 335 disposed applications, the allowance rate is 69%. The allowance rate ranges from 67% to 70% across these art units. Of the 378 total applications in the record, 230 were allowed and 105 were abandoned. This pooled figure represents the aggregate outcome across all art units and reflects past dispositions only.
A pooled record aggregates data across multiple art units and reflects historical dispositions. The overall allowance rate of 69% describes past outcomes across all units combined and is not a prediction of any specific application's outcome. Individual art-unit records may vary. Pooled statistics provide context for an examiner's overall record but do not indicate how any particular 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 →

Methodology. This page pools every art unit in which Examiner Joanne Gonzales Macasiano 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: 378 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.
