Analysis

Frantz Bataille works in tech center 2600 and art unit 2673. His record includes 735 resolved cases, an allowance rate of 82.0%, and a median of 792 days to allowance. The interview lift is 0.7%, so the recorded association between interviews and allowance is limited compared with the overall allowance result.

Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd., Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd., and Apple Inc. appear among the leading companies. The leading firms are Nixon & Vanderhye PC, FIG. 1 Patents, and FOLEY & LARDNER LLP. The combination of a substantial case history and a relatively short median timing gives practitioners a useful basis for planning prosecution in this unit, while interviews may warrant a targeted rather than routine role.
