Tech Center 2900 • Art Units: 2934 2938
This examiner grants 99% of resolved cases
BUFFA, NICHOLAS JOHN handles art unit 2934 matters in tech center 2900. The profile contains 103 resolved cases, an allowance rate of 99.0%, an interview lift of 1.1%, and a median time to allowance of 776 days. The allowance figure is the dominant signal in the available record, while the interview measure indicates only a limited positive lift. Counsel can therefore focus on strong initial claim presentation and efficient written prosecution, with interviews used selectively.
Agag Tech Inc. is the only listed company, and JCIPRNET is the only leading firm. The narrow participant history gives the profile a focused technology and representation context but does not support a broad firm comparison. The median timeline supports practical scheduling for applicants evaluating prosecution duration.
