// HOW TO READ THESE NUMBERS

How to read these numbers.

A pooled record aggregates outcomes across all art units assigned to the examiner. The allowance rate shown here is derived from decided applications only (allowed plus abandoned) and excludes pending filings. Aggregate figures describe past dispositions and are not predictions about any specific application or art unit. Individual art-unit performance data may be available separately.

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 →

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.
