Md Abul K. Azad is an examiner in Tech Center 4100 and Art Unit 1743. He has managed 674 resolved cases with an allowance rate pct of 81.5%. This 81.5% rate indicates that a majority of the applications in his portfolio result in a grant. The median days to allowance for these cases is 987, which establishes a timeline for practitioners to expect when prosecuting in this art unit. For the 674 resolved cases, this 987-day period represents the median duration from filing to issuance for successful applications.
The data shows an interview lift pct of 20.9%. This 20.9% lift is an increase in the probability of allowance when an interview is conducted compared to the 81.5% baseline allowance rate. This suggests that direct communication with the examiner is an effective method for resolving outstanding rejections. Practitioners can use the 20.9% lift to evaluate the impact of an interview, as it correlates with a higher success rate than the baseline. The 987-day median suggests that the process in Art Unit 1743 is relatively efficient for the 674 resolved cases.
