This examiner grants 86% of resolved cases
Timothy A. Brainard is an experienced examiner in Tech Center 3600, with 1199 resolved cases. His allowance rate pct of 86.3% in Art Unit 3646 is high, indicating that most applications under his review eventually reach a grant. The median days to allowance is 1014, providing a reliable estimate for the duration of the prosecution process.
The interview lift pct of 5.5 is relatively low, which is expected given the already high 86.3% allowance rate. This suggests that while interviews are helpful, they are not as critical for success as they might be with other examiners. The high volume of 1199 cases shows a consistent and predictable examination style. Practitioners can approach prosecution with confidence, knowing that the 86.3% allowance rate and 1014-day median timeline are based on a very large and stable data set.
