Examiner Sisley Nahyun Kim has allowed 770 of 850 decided applications (91%) in Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security.
Examiner Sisley Nahyun Kim maintains a public record in Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security). Across a single art unit, the examiner has disposed of 850 applications, of which 770 were allowed. This yields an allowance rate of 91% over the decided application count. Of the total 903 applications in the examiner's record, 80 were abandoned. The allowance rate reflects outcomes on applications that have reached final disposition and does not include pending cases.
A pooled record aggregates data across all art units assigned to an examiner. The allowance rate and application counts presented here are historical summaries of decided cases and are not predictions about any individual application. Aggregate figures describe past outcomes; individual application results vary based on claim scope, prior art, and prosecution history.
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. This page pools every art unit in which Examiner Sisley Nahyun Kim 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: 903 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.
