The examiner has disposed of 80 applications across a single art unit. Of those 80 decided applications, 63 were allowed and 17 were abandoned, yielding an allowance rate of 79%. This rate reflects the examiner's pooled historical record and describes applications already decided; it is not a prediction of outcomes for any pending or future application.

// HOW TO READ THESE NUMBERS

How to read these numbers.

This record aggregates the examiner's work across all art units under their jurisdiction. The allowance rate of 79% is calculated from decided applications only—allowed and abandoned—and excludes pending cases. Aggregate figures describe the past record and are correlational in nature. They do not indicate how any specific application will be examined or decided, nor do they account for variations in application complexity, claim scope, or prior art across different matters.

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 →

Figures are rounded for display. Pooled sample: 80 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.
