What the data says.reading this examiner

Mohamed A Kamara maintains an allowance rate of 90% across more than a thousand decided applications in Technology Center 2400. His record spans 3 art units: 2412, 2419, and 2475. The allowance rate ranges from 83% to 94% across these art units, reflecting variation in the examiner's decided applications within different subject areas under TC 2400. This pooled figure represents all allowed and abandoned applications and excludes pending matters.

How to read these numbers.

This pooled record aggregates the examiner's decisions across multiple art units within Technology Center 2400. The overall allowance rate of 90% describes the examiner's historical record and is not a prediction of any specific application's outcome. When an examiner works across several art units, the aggregate figure masks variation within each unit; the range shown (83% to 94%) illustrates that difference. Pooled data reflects past dispositions only.

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 Mohamed A Kamara 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: 1,274 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.
