// HOW TO READ THESE NUMBERS

How to read these numbers.

A pooled record aggregates data across all art units assigned to an examiner. The figures presented—allowance rate, application counts, and art-unit breadth—describe historical dispositions and past outcomes only. They are correlational snapshots of completed applications, not predictive indicators of any individual application's prospects. Each new case presents distinct claim scope, prior art, and examiner analysis.

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 →

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: 58 applications.
