Examiner Paul Michael Galvin-Siebenaler has allowed 2 of 6 decided applications (33%) in Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security.
Paul Michael Galvin-Siebenaler has a public record in Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security). Across 52 total applications, 6 have been disposed of (decided). Of those 6 decided applications, 2 were allowed and 4 were abandoned, yielding an allowance rate of 33% over the disposed count. The examiner works within 1 art unit. This pooled figure reflects the aggregate record across all art units in which the examiner has activity and is historical in nature.
This record aggregates the examiner's activity across all assigned art units in TC 2100. The allowance rate of 33% describes what occurred over 6 decided applications in the past and is not a prediction of the outcome of any specific application. Pooled figures mask variation by art unit; detailed per-art-unit records appear separately. Aggregate statistics describe past activity and do not indicate how any future application 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. This page pools every art unit in which Examiner Paul Michael Galvin-Siebenaler 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: 52 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.
