// HOW TO READ THESE NUMBERS

How to read these numbers.

This pooled record aggregates all art units under the examiner's assignment. Aggregate allowance rates describe the examiner's historical performance across his entire portfolio and are not predictions of outcomes in any specific application. Different art units may have different subject matter, applicant bases, and application complexity. Pooled figures smooth these variations and offer a broad view of past dispositions, not a forecast of future results.

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 John Francis Wojton 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: 54 applications.
