Examiner Richard L Ellis

What the data says.

Richard L Ellis maintains a public record in Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security). Across 100 disposed applications, the examiner allowed 78 and abandoned 22, yielding an allowance rate of 78%. This record spans a single art unit. The figures reflect outcomes on applications that have been decided; pending applications are excluded from this calculation. The allowance rate is a summary of past dispositions and does not characterize the examiner's approach to any particular application.

How to read these numbers.

This pooled record aggregates results across all art units under the examiner's jurisdiction. A single allowance figure reflects decided cases from multiple subject areas if applicable. Aggregate statistics describe the examiner's historical output and are correlational—they measure what occurred, not what will occur in any future case. Individual application outcomes depend on claim scope, prior art, and prosecution history, none of which are predicted by aggregate rates.

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 →

The record, art unit by art unit.
