Tech Center 3600 • Art Units: 3669
This examiner grants 45% of resolved cases
Paul McCarthy Allen, in Tech Center 3600 and Art Unit 3669, has 193 resolved cases. The allowance rate is 44.6 percent, indicating a competitive environment for patent grants. This 44.6 percent rate shows that more than half of the 193 cases reach a resolution without a grant. Practitioners should prepare for a thorough review.
The interview lift of 32.5 percent suggests that interviews are an effective way to improve the odds of allowance. The median days to allowance is 1183, which is a significant amount of time for applicants to manage. Practitioners should prioritize interviews to leverage the 32.5 percent lift and improve the 44.6 percent allowance rate. The 1183-day timeline should be communicated to clients as a standard expectation. These metrics indicate that direct communication is a productive way to navigate the examiner's requirements and secure a patent grant.
