// HOW TO READ THESE NUMBERS

How to read these numbers.

This record aggregates all applications across the examiner's art units within TC 2100, pooling allowances and abandonments into a single historical figure. The 89% allowance rate describes past decisions on 759 disposed applications and is a correlation of the examiner's record. It is not a prediction of any specific application's outcome and does not indicate what any future examination will produce.

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: 797 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.
