This examiner grants 72% of resolved cases
Douglas B Blair is an examiner in Tech Center 2400 and Art Unit 2142. With 646 resolved cases, the examiner has an allowance rate pct of 72.6. This provides a strong statistical basis for predicting outcomes. The data suggests a generally positive prosecution environment for most applicants.
The median days to allowance is 1435. The interview lift pct is 7.7, suggesting that interviews provide a moderate benefit in the prosecution process. While the 7.7 lift pct is helpful, the 72.6 allowance rate pct is the primary indicator of success. The 1435 day timeline is relatively long, so practitioners should plan for a multi year engagement. Overall, the examiner's record of 646 cases shows a consistent approach with a high likelihood of grant, though the process may take significant time to reach the 1435 day median.
