Examiner Rocio Del Mar Perez-Velez has allowed 200 of 251 decided applications (80%) in Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security.
Rocio Del Mar Perez-Velez maintains a public record spanning five art units within Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security). Across 251 disposed applications, the examiner allowed 200, yielding an allowance rate of 80%. The examiner's work spans multiple art units (2117, 2132, 2133, 2182, 2187), and allowance rates vary across these units, ranging from 29% to 88%. This breadth reflects examination activity across distinct areas within TC 2100. The figures presented describe the examiner's past record and are not predictive of outcomes in any individual pending application.
This pooled record aggregates data from five art units into a single allowance rate. The 80% figure represents all allowed and abandoned applications decided by the examiner across TC 2100, not a projection for any specific case. Allowance rates vary among art units (29% to 88%), which reflects differences in examination activity and outcomes within the technology center. A pooled rate describes the examiner's historical performance across diverse subject matter and does not predict results in any particular 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 →
Each section benchmarks this examiner against that art unit's average. Figures are this examiner's own public record within the art unit; the overall rate above pools them.
Primarily examines input/output (I/O) data transfer, and memory access and allocation.
Allowance rate for applications with an examiner interview versus without one.
A correlation, not proof that interviews cause allowances. Based on 80 decided applications with an interview and 84 without.
Primarily examines data-processing methods for specific functions, and processing data by its order or content.
Primarily examines control or regulating systems.
Based on 24 applications — too small a sample to characterize the rejection mix reliably; shown for completeness.

Primarily examines computer-aided design (CAD).

Methodology. This page pools every art unit in which Examiner Rocio Del Mar Perez-Velez 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: 256 applications.

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.
