What the data says.

Mehmet B Geckil maintains a public record across 2 art units in Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security). Of 66 disposed applications, 54 were allowed and 12 were abandoned, yielding an allowance rate of 82%. This figure reflects the examiner's pooled record across all assigned art units and describes past dispositions only. The breadth of the record spans multiple art-unit areas within TC 2100, meaning the aggregate allowance rate reflects work across different subject classifications.

// HOW TO READ THESE NUMBERS

How to read these numbers.

A pooled record aggregates an examiner's work across multiple art units and technology areas. The allowance rate reported here—82% over 66 disposed applications—is a historical aggregate and does not forecast the outcome of any individual application. Pooled figures mask variation across art units; detailed per-art-unit records appear separately. Use aggregate data to understand overall patterns, not to predict specific prosecution outcomes.

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 Mehmet B Geckil 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: 66 applications.
