Tech Center 6200 • Art Units: 2629 2696 6215
This examiner grants 32% of resolved cases
Matthew A. Fry has resolved 219 cases in Tech Center 6200 and Art Unit 2629. He maintains an allowance rate of 32.0% and a median of 1652 days to allowance. Continental Autonomous Mobility Germany GmbH is a top company in his docket, often represented by the firm FITCH EVEN TABIN & FLANNERY, LLP. The 32.0% allowance rate suggests a very difficult examination environment where grants are relatively rare.
The interview lift of 30.8% is high, indicating that interviews are a very effective tool for overcoming rejections in this unit. This 30.8% lift is particularly important given the low 32.0% baseline allowance rate, as it suggests that direct communication can significantly improve an applicant's chances. The 1652-day median pendency is one of the longest in the data, reflecting a prosecution cycle that typically lasts over four and a half years.
For practitioners, the combination of a 32.0% allowance rate and a 1652-day median pendency requires a highly strategic approach. The 30.8% interview lift is the most promising tool for achieving a successful outcome. Applicants should be prepared for a long-term commitment and should prioritize interviews early in the process to address the examiner's concerns and navigate the exceptionally long 1652-day timeline to allowance.
