Tech Center 3600 • Art Units: 2143 3624

This examiner grants 29% of resolved cases

Analysis

Mohamed N. El-Bathy works in Art Unit 2143 within Tech Center 3600 and has resolved 249 cases. The allowance rate is 28.9 percent, which indicates a rigorous examination process with a high frequency of non-allowance outcomes. This 28.9 percent rate suggests that practitioners should be prepared for a more difficult prosecution path compared to other units in the same tech center.

The interview lift of 32.2 percent is a vital metric for this examiner. Given the low overall allowance rate of 28.9 percent, the substantial lift suggests that direct communication can effectively address examiner concerns and move a case toward allowance. Practitioners should prioritize interviews as a primary strategy to improve the odds of success, as the 32.2 percent increase is a significant deviation from the baseline.

The median days to allowance is 1272. This relatively long duration, combined with the 28.9 percent allowance rate, suggests a challenging and time-consuming prosecution environment. The 1272-day benchmark is an important factor for practitioners to consider when evaluating the potential costs and timelines for applications in Art Unit 2143.
