// READING THIS EXAMINER

What the data says.

Peter Li Yuan's public record spans Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security). His pooled record covers 26 total applications. Of those applications, zero have been allowed and zero have been abandoned, resulting in zero disposed (decided) applications. Because no applications have been decided, an allowance rate cannot be calculated. His record encompasses a single art unit. The data reflects completed dispositions only; pending applications are excluded from this summary.

// HOW TO READ THESE NUMBERS

How to read these numbers.

This pooled record aggregates outcomes across all art units in which the examiner has acted. The figures presented—total applications, dispositions, and allowance rates—describe the examiner's historical record and do not constitute predictions about any specific pending application. When reviewing a pooled profile spanning multiple art units, the aggregate statistics reflect a mixture of different subject areas and examination contexts. Individual application outcomes vary based on claim scope, prior art, and applicant responses.

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 →

// BY ART UNIT

METHODOLOGY & DISCLOSURES

Methodology. This page pools every art unit in which Examiner Peter Li Yuan 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: 26 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.
