This examiner grants 81% of resolved cases
Richard L. Bowen is an examiner in Tech Center 2100 and Art Unit 2100, where he has overseen 554 resolved cases. His allowance rate of 80.7 percent indicates a favorable environment for applicants. However, the prosecution process requires a significant time investment, as evidenced by the median days to allowance of 1002.
A critical strategy for practitioners is the use of examiner interviews. The data shows an interview lift of 26.9 percent, which is a substantial increase over the 80.7 percent baseline. Engaging in direct dialogue with the examiner appears to be a highly effective method for resolving outstanding issues and moving toward an allowance in these 554 resolved cases.
The combination of an 80.7 percent allowance rate and a 26.9 percent interview lift suggests that while the examiner is open to granting patents, active participation through interviews is a primary driver of success. Practitioners should factor the 1002 median days to allowance into their long-term strategy, as the path to issuance often spans a significant period in Art Unit 2100.
