Over 81 disposed applications, the examiner allowed 45 and abandoned 36, yielding an allowance rate of 56%.

// HOW TO READ THESE NUMBERS

How to read these numbers.

A pooled record aggregates results across all art units assigned to an examiner. The allowance rate reported here reflects past outcomes on all decided applications combined and describes what occurred, not what will occur on any specific case. Individual art-unit records, where available separately, may show variation. Aggregate figures provide context for historical examination activity but are not predictive tools.

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 Reza Hosseini 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: 81 applications.

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.
