// READING THIS EXAMINER

What the data says.

Examiner Tasnima Matin's public record spans 2 art units in Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security). Across 495 disposed applications, the examiner allowed 450, yielding an allowance rate of 91%. This rate reflects the proportion of decided applications (allowed and abandoned combined) in the pooled record. The examiner's work covers multiple distinct art units within TC 2100, and this overall figure aggregates outcomes across both units without distinguishing performance by individual unit.

// HOW TO READ THESE NUMBERS

How to read these numbers.

This pooled record combines all dispositions across the examiner's assigned art units into a single aggregate profile. The allowance rate of 91% describes the past distribution of allowed and abandoned applications in decided cases. Aggregate figures describe historical outcomes, not predictions for any pending or future application. Art-unit-level data, where available separately, may show variation within the examiner's portfolio.

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 Tasnima Matin 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: 514 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.
