// HOW TO READ THESE NUMBERS

How to read these numbers.

This pooled record aggregates outcomes across all of Tolentino's art units. The allowance rate shown (63% over 59 disposed applications) describes the examiner's past record and represents a statistical snapshot of outcomes already decided. Aggregate figures do not predict the outcome of any individual application. Understanding that pooled data combines multiple art units helps contextualize the overall figures in relation to any particular submission.

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

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: 59 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.
