What the data says.

Examiner Ly Hua maintains a public record across two art units in Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security). Over a pooled record of 33 disposed applications, the examiner allowed 32 and abandoned 1, yielding an allowance rate of 97 percent. This rate is measured as a percentage of decided applications only, excluding any pending matters. The breadth of two art units reflects work across distinct patent categories within the technology center.

// HOW TO READ THESE NUMBERS

How to read these numbers.

This pooled record aggregates dispositions across multiple art units within TC 2100. The allowance rate of 97 percent describes the examiner's historical record on decided applications and is not a prediction about any specific application. Aggregate figures reflect past outcomes across different subject areas and examination contexts. Individual applications may be examined under different procedural and substantive circumstances.

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 Ly Hua 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: 33 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.
