This profile aggregates the examiner's record across multiple art units within TC 2100. The 90% allowance rate is a historical statistic describing past dispositions and is not a prediction of the outcome of any specific application. Allowance rates vary among the examiner's individual art units—the range reflects that variation. A pooled record does not forecast how any particular case will be decided.

Methodology. This page pools every art unit in which Examiner Ngoc V Dinh 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: 258 applications.

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.
