Examiner Roland J Casillas has allowed 298 of 460 decided applications (65%) in Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security.
Roland J Casillas maintains a public record in Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security) spanning two art units. Across 460 disposed applications, his allowance rate is 65%, reflecting 298 allowed and 162 abandoned applications. The allowance rate varies across his art units, ranging from 49% to 86%. This pooled figure aggregates outcomes from both art units and describes his historical record in this technology center without indicating results in any specific application.
A pooled record combines outcomes across multiple art units into a single allowance rate. The 65% figure represents past decisions on 460 applications across both art units. Because different art units handle different subject matter within TC 2100, individual art-unit rates may differ materially from the pooled average. Pooled statistics describe historical outcomes and are not predictions of disposition in any particular case.
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 artificial-intelligence and machine-learning methods.

Methodology. This page pools every art unit in which Examiner Roland J Casillas 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: 460 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.
