Examiner Leandro R Villanueva has allowed 34 of 90 decided applications (38%) in Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security.
Leandro R Villanueva maintains a public record across 2 art units in Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security). Over 90 disposed applications, the examiner's allowance rate is 38%, meaning 34 applications were allowed and 56 were abandoned. This allowance rate reflects outcomes across the pooled art units and describes the historical record of decided cases. The figure does not characterize performance or predict results in any particular application.
This pooled record aggregates decisions from multiple art units within TC 2100. The allowance rate of 38% describes past dispositions across all art units combined, not performance within any single art unit. Aggregate statistics are historical observations and are not predictions about individual applications. Understanding that a pooled record spans different subject areas helps contextualize the overall figure without inferring outcomes for any specific case.
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 input/output (I/O) data transfer, and memory access and allocation.
Allowance rate for applications with an examiner interview versus without one.
A correlation, not proof that interviews cause allowances. Based on 59 decided applications with an interview and 29 without.
Primarily examines computer-aided design (CAD).
Based on 2 applications — too small a sample to characterize the rejection mix reliably; shown for completeness.
Methodology. This page pools every art unit in which Examiner Leandro R Villanueva 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: 90 applications.

These statistics describe past examiner behavior and do not predict the outcome of any particular application. Past results do not guarantee future outcomes. 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.
