What the data says.

Karina Levitian maintains a public record in Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security). Across 54 disposed applications, she allowed 25 and abandoned 29, yielding an allowance rate of 46%. Her record spans a single art unit (2165). This pooled figure describes her historical dispositions and does not project outcomes for any individual application. The 46% allowance rate reflects the ratio of allowed to decided applications in her aggregate record.

// HOW TO READ THESE NUMBERS

How to read these numbers.

A pooled record aggregates data across all art units assigned to an examiner. The allowance rate shown here is computed from all decided applications (allowed plus abandoned) in her public history and represents past dispositions only. Pooled figures do not account for variations between individual art units and are not predictions of how any specific 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 →

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.
