// HOW TO READ THESE NUMBERS

How to read these numbers.

A pooled record aggregates all dispositions across an examiner's art units into a single allowance-rate figure. This aggregate describes the examiner's historical record and reflects past decisions on resolved applications. The rate is not a prediction of any specific application's outcome. Pooled figures are most useful as a general reference to an examiner's past practice; they do not account for variation by art unit, technology, or application 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 Marshon L Robinson 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.
