What the data says.

Mike Nguyen's public record spans one art unit in Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security). Over 40 disposed applications, the allowance rate stands at 80%, reflecting 32 allowed and 8 abandoned applications. This rate is calculated from decided cases and does not include pending applications. The pooled record represents the examiner's aggregate performance across all assigned art units and reflects historical outcomes only.

// HOW TO READ THESE NUMBERS

How to read these numbers.

A pooled record aggregates results across all art units assigned to an examiner. The allowance rate—here 80% over 40 decided applications—describes past outcomes and is not a prediction of any specific application's fate. Aggregate figures mask variation between individual art units and do not forecast how any particular submission will be examined or decided.

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 Mike Nguyen 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: 40 applications.

Lynch LLP is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by the United States Patent and Trademark Office. Examiner statistics are derived from publicly available USPTO data.

These statistics describe past examiner behavior and do not predict the outcome of any particular application. Past results do not guarantee future outcomes. Where this page compares an examiner's allowance rate to an art-unit average, that comparison is a factual description of the public record, not a characterization of any individual examiner's conduct or competence.
