What the data says.

Konrad J Kulikowski maintains a public record of 89 disposed applications in Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security). Of those decided applications, 29 were allowed and 60 were abandoned, yielding an allowance rate of 33%. This record spans a single art unit. The allowance rate represents the ratio of allowed to all disposed applications and is calculated from completed prosecution histories only; pending applications are excluded from this metric.

// HOW TO READ THESE NUMBERS

How to read these numbers.

This pooled record aggregates the examiner's work across one art unit over time. The 33% allowance rate describes what has occurred in past prosecution histories within TC 2100 and reflects the distribution of allowed and abandoned outcomes across 89 closed files. Pooled figures describe the historical record and are not predictions about any individual application or its path to resolution.

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 Konrad J Kulikowski 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: 89 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.
