How to read these numbers.

This pooled record aggregates all art units under which this examiner has issued decisions. The allowance rate of 62% describes the examiner's historical disposition rate across decided applications and is a statistical summary of past outcomes only. Aggregate figures do not predict the result of any individual application. Each application presents unique facts and claims. Historical rates describe what has occurred, not what will occur.

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 →
