What the data says.reading this examiner

Juvena W Loo maintains a pooled allowance rate of 80% across hundreds of decided applications in Technology Center 2400. This rate reflects the share of applications in the examiner's record that were allowed, out of all decided applications (allowed and abandoned). The examiner's public record spans 2 art units within the technology center. The allowance rate is computed from decided applications only and does not include pending cases. This pooled figure aggregates the examiner's work across multiple art units and describes the historical record without reference to any specific application.

How to read these numbers.

A pooled record aggregates an examiner's performance across multiple art units into a single overall allowance rate. The 80% figure reflects past decisions on allowed and abandoned applications, combining work from different subject areas within TC 2400. Pooled statistics describe historical outcomes and are not predictions about any particular application. Individual art units may exhibit different rates; per-art-unit detail appears in separate sections of this record.

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 Juvena W Loo has a public record within Technology Center 2400. Statistics are computed from publicly available USPTO records, refreshed on a recurring schedule. This page's data was last updated July 22, 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: 536 applications.

Rejection rates. Each §-rate is the share of this examiner's applications that drew at least one office-action rejection in which that statutory ground appears; applications with no rejection on record are excluded, and because grounds can co-occur the four do not sum to 100%. The art-unit figure beside each is the unweighted mean of the per-examiner rates across the art unit, published for §101 and §103 only. Beside the overall allowance rate we show a benchmark: for a single-art-unit examiner it is exactly that art unit's average, labeled “art-unit average”; for an examiner spanning several art units it is the “weighted peer average” — the per-art-unit averages, weighted by this examiner's application count in each — labeled distinctly because it is a blended figure, not any single art unit's average. Both are built from the same per-art-unit averages the panels show.
