// HOW TO READ THESE NUMBERS

How to read these numbers.

A pooled record aggregates outcomes across all art units an examiner oversees. The allowance rate reported here—79%—describes the historical proportion of decided applications that were allowed, computed from disposed (decided) applications only. This aggregate statistic is a snapshot of past dispositions and is not a prediction of outcomes on any individual application.

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 →
