// READING THIS EXAMINER

What the data says.

Examiner Qamrun Nahar's public record spans 5 art units within Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security). Across 1,000 disposed applications, 870 were allowed, yielding an allowance rate of 87%. This rate reflects decided cases only—allowed and abandoned applications combined—and excludes pending filings. The examiner's allowance rate varies across art units, ranging from 66% to 97%. This range reflects the diversity of subject matter and application characteristics across the five art units in the examiner's portfolio.

// HOW TO READ THESE NUMBERS

How to read these numbers.

This pooled record aggregates data from five separate art units, each with its own examination patterns and subject-matter focus. The overall 87% allowance rate summarizes the examiner's past decisions across all these units combined. Aggregate figures describe historical outcomes and are correlational, not predictive of any specific application's outcome. Individual art-unit records, maintained separately, provide more granular subject-matter context for particular technologies or claim types.

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 Qamrun Nahar 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: 1,039 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.
