// HOW TO READ THESE NUMBERS

How to read these numbers.

This record aggregates examination activity across all art units in which the examiner works. The allowance rate shown—53% over 49 disposed applications—is a historical snapshot of decisions already made, not a prediction for any specific application. Pooled figures smooth variation across different art units and subject-matter areas; they describe past patterns only and do not indicate how any future case will be examined or decided.

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

Methodology. This page pools every art unit in which Examiner Saoussen Besrour 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.

Figures are rounded for display. Pooled sample: 49 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.
