Ibrahim D Bori, USPTO Patent Examiner

Listed by the USPTO as BORI, IBRAHIM D

Tech Center 1600 • Art Units: 1622 1629

This examiner grants 44% of resolved cases

Analysis

Ibrahim D. Bori serves in Tech Center 1600 and Art Unit 1622. Bori has 615 resolved cases and an allowance rate of 43.9 percent. This rate suggests a challenging environment for applicants in biotechnology and organic chemistry. Practitioners should be prepared for a rigorous examination process where less than half of the applications reach a grant.

The interview lift is 39.0 percent, which is a very high figure indicating that interviews are a critical strategy for securing an allowance compared to cases without them. This suggests that direct engagement is highly effective in resolving rejections. The median days to allowance is 1258, reflecting a longer and potentially more difficult prosecution process for successful applications.

Nestlé S.A., AMOREPACIFIC Corporation, and Zogenix are major companies in Bori's docket. Firms like K&L Gates LLP and Sterne, Kessler, Goldstein & Fox P.L.L.C. are frequently involved. These data points highlight the importance of direct examiner engagement in this art unit, where the 43.9 percent allowance rate presents a significant hurdle.
