Examiner John Robert Dakita Ewald

What the data says.

Patent Examiner John Robert Dakita Ewald maintains a public record across one art unit in Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security). The examiner's allowance rate, calculated from 24 disposed applications, stands at 79%. This means that of applications decided (allowed or abandoned), 79% were allowed. The examiner has processed a total of 57 applications, with 19 allowed, 5 abandoned, and 24 disposed. The remaining applications remain pending. This pooled record reflects the examiner's overall output and rates across all assigned art units.

How to read these numbers.

This record pools all art units under Examiner Ewald's jurisdiction and presents aggregate figures. The allowance rate of 79% describes the past distribution of decided applications—allowed versus abandoned—and reflects historical output only. Aggregate figures do not constitute predictions of outcomes for any specific application. Individual art units may show different rates and activity levels; pooled data combines them into a single overall profile.

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 software engineering, and program control and execution.
