Examiner Sana A Al Hashemi has allowed 896 of 1,078 decided applications (83%) in Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security.
Sana A Al Hashemi maintains a public record spanning 7 art units within Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security). Across 1,078 disposed applications, 896 were allowed, yielding an 83% allowance rate. The examiner's allowance rates vary across art units, ranging from 71% to 98%. This pooled figure represents the aggregate of decided cases and does not account for pending applications. The breadth of art-unit assignments reflects the examiner's work across multiple subject areas within the technology center.
A pooled record aggregates an examiner's performance across multiple art units into a single allowance rate. The 83% figure describes past disposition patterns and is a historical summary only—not a prediction for any specific application. Individual art units within TC 2100 show varying allowance rates (71% to 98%), reflecting differences in subject matter complexity, examiner assignment, or applicant behavior within those units. Pooled data provides context on overall record but does not forecast outcomes 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.

Methodology. This page pools every art unit in which Examiner Sana A Al Hashemi 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: 1,078 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.
