Examiner Cozart maintains a high allowance rate of 84.0% in Art Unit 3657, based on 927 resolved cases. This suggests a very favorable environment for patent applicants within Tech Center 3700.

The interview lift of 3.2% is relatively low, indicating that while interviews are not detrimental, they are not the primary driver of the 84.0% allowance rate.

Practitioners can expect a high likelihood of success with a standard prosecution strategy, focusing on the 952-day median timeline for planning. While the 3.2% lift is positive, it suggests that most cases reach allowance through the written record. Applicants should prioritize clear and concise written submissions to capitalize on the examiner's high baseline for granting patents.
