Examiner: CHOI, CHARLES J

Analysis

Charles J Choi is an examiner in Tech Center 2100 and Art Unit 2133. Across 321 resolved cases, the examiner has an allowance rate of 82.9%. This high rate indicates a favorable environment for applicants, where the majority of cases result in a patent grant. The median days to allowance is 928, which provides a benchmark for the expected time from filing to grant for successful applications in this specific art unit.

The interview lift is 5.0%. This figure shows that conducting an interview provides a modest increase in the probability of allowance over the 82.9% baseline. While the baseline is already high, the 5.0% lift suggests that the examiner is open to discussion and that interviews can be a useful way to resolve any minor issues or clarify technical points that might otherwise cause delays in Art Unit 2133.

In Tech Center 2100, the 321 resolved cases provide a solid basis for these statistics. The 82.9% allowance rate and 928 median days to allowance are the key indicators for practitioners. The 5.0% interview lift, while not as dramatic as in other profiles, still represents a positive opportunity for applicants to engage the examiner directly and ensure a successful outcome.
