This examiner grants 40% of resolved cases

Analysis

George Eng serves in Tech Center 2600 and Art Unit 2611, where he has overseen 50 resolved cases. His allowance rate of 40.0% suggests a rigorous examination style, making it more difficult to secure a grant. The median days to allowance of 1220 further indicates that applicants should expect a lengthy and potentially challenging path toward patent issuance.

To improve the 40.0% allowance rate, practitioners should consider the interview lift of 18.6%. This metric shows that direct engagement with the examiner can provide a meaningful boost to the chances of success. Given the 1220-day median pendency, an interview could be a strategic way to resolve technical disagreements early in the process. While the 50 resolved cases provide a smaller data set, the 18.6% lift remains a key factor for practitioners to consider when navigating prosecution in Art Unit 2611.
