Examiner Ronald T Modo has allowed 323 of 406 decided applications (80%) in Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security.
Ronald T Modo's public record spans one art unit within Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security). Across 406 disposed applications, 323 were allowed and 83 abandoned, yielding an 80% allowance rate. This rate reflects the ratio of allowed to all decided applications in the pooled record and is based solely on applications with final outcomes. The figure does not account for pending applications and represents the examiner's historical record across the art units covered.
This pooled record aggregates data across all art units in which the examiner works. The allowance rate and application counts describe the past record and represent correlations within that historical data. These figures are not predictions about the outcome of any particular application. Art units may vary in subject matter, applicant behavior, and other factors; pooled statistics smooth these differences into a single aggregate view of the examiner's overall record.
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 interconnection and data transfer between memory, I/O, and processing units, and program control and execution.
Allowance rate for applications with an examiner interview versus without one.
A correlation, not proof that interviews cause allowances. Based on 245 decided applications with an interview and 161 without.
Methodology. This page pools every art unit in which Examiner Ronald T Modo 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: 406 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.
