How to read these numbers.

This pooled record aggregates the examiner's activity across all art units in which they work. The allowance rate and application counts presented here are historical summaries—they describe what has been decided in the past. Pooled figures do not isolate performance by individual art unit or technology area. An aggregate allowance rate is a description of past outcomes, not a prediction of the outcome of any particular application or a measure of examination standards.

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 →
