Examiner Maikhanh Nguyen has allowed 820 of 958 decided applications (86%) in Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security.
Maikhanh Nguyen maintains a public record in Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security) spanning two art units. Over 958 decided applications, the examiner has allowed 820, yielding an 86% allowance rate. The allowance rate across the two art units ranges from 79% to 100%, reflecting variation in the disposed record between the units. This pooled figure aggregates the examiner's work across both art units and describes the historical record only.
A pooled record combines statistics from multiple art units into a single aggregate. The overall allowance rate reflects past dispositions across all units handled by the examiner, not a prediction about any specific application. Allowance rates vary between individual art units; the range shown (79% to 100%) indicates this variation. Pooled figures describe historical performance only and do not forecast outcomes in any particular 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 →

Methodology. This page pools every art unit in which Examiner Maikhanh Nguyen 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: 984 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.
