Examiner: FLEMING, FAYE M

Analysis

Faye M. Fleming is a highly active examiner in Tech Center 4100 and Art Unit 3612, having resolved 1569 cases. Her allowance rate of 92.1 percent is exceptionally high, indicating that the vast majority of applications she examines eventually reach issuance. The efficiency of her docket is further highlighted by a median of 682 days to allowance. This relatively short duration suggests a streamlined prosecution path for applicants. In this context, the interview lift of 6.3 percent is modest compared to the 92.1 percent allowance rate, likely because the baseline is already so high.

For practitioners, these metrics suggest that while interviews provide a small benefit, the overall likelihood of success is high regardless of the specific intervention. The high volume of 1569 resolved cases provides a robust statistical basis for these performance trends. The 6.3 percent lift serves as a secondary tactic for resolving minor issues. The 682 days to allowance makes this one of the more efficient dockets in Tech Center 4100.
