// HOW TO READ THESE NUMBERS

How to read these numbers.

This profile aggregates Kamran Afshar's record across one art unit within TC 2100. Pooled figures merge data from all art units under the examiner's name and describe past dispositions only. The 40% allowance rate is calculated from decided applications (allowed plus abandoned), excluding pending cases. Aggregate statistics characterize historical volume and decisions; they are not predictions or indicators of how any individual application will be handled.

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 Kamran Afshar 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: 87 applications.

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.
