// READING THIS EXAMINER

What the data says.

Mujtaba M Chaudry maintains a public record in Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security) spanning 2 art units. Across more than a thousand decided applications, the examiner's allowance rate is 87%. The allowance rate ranges from 82% to 88% across these art units. This pooled figure aggregates outcomes from all art units in the examiner's record and describes past decisions on applications that reached final disposition—either allowance or abandonment—without regard to pending filings.

// HOW TO READ THESE NUMBERS

How to read these numbers.

A pooled allowance rate represents an aggregate of decisions across multiple art units and reflects historical outcomes only. The figure describes what occurred in past decided applications and is not a prediction for any specific case. Individual art units within an examiner's record may show variation from the overall rate. Pooled statistics are useful context for understanding an examiner's decision history but do not forecast the outcome of any particular application or amendment.

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 Mujtaba M Chaudry 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 July 14, 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: 1,470 applications.

Rejection rates. Each §-rate is the share of this examiner's applications that drew at least one office-action rejection in which that statutory ground appears; applications with no rejection on record are excluded, and because grounds can co-occur the four do not sum to 100%. The art-unit figure beside each is the unweighted mean of the per-examiner rates across the art unit, published for §101 and §103 only. Beside the overall allowance rate we show a benchmark: for a single-art-unit examiner it is exactly that art unit's average, labeled “art-unit average”; for an examiner spanning several art units it is the “weighted peer average” — the per-art-unit averages, weighted by this examiner's application count in each — labeled distinctly because it is a blended figure, not any single art unit's average. Both are built from the same per-art-unit averages the panels show.

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.
