How to read these numbers.

This record aggregates all applications across the examiner's art units in TC 2100. The 64% allowance rate describes past decisions on a closed set of 529 applications. Pooled figures combine different art units and technologies and do not forecast the outcome of any particular filing. Any applicant's experience may differ based on application content, prior art, claim scope, and office actions.

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 →
