This examiner grants 11% of resolved cases
Scott D. Gartland has managed a high volume of 603 resolved cases in Tech Center 3600 and Art Unit 3622. The examiner's allowance rate stands at 10.9%, which is notably low and points toward a difficult examination process for most applicants. This restrictive environment requires a robust prosecution strategy to overcome frequent rejections.
Despite the low overall allowance rate, the interview lift is 12.2%. This indicates that applicants who engage in interviews see a measurable increase in their chances of success, making verbal communication a potentially useful tool during prosecution. Oral advocacy may help in clarifying the examiner's concerns and finding a path toward allowable subject matter.
The median days to allowance is 1557, representing a significant time investment for applicants. This duration is one of the longer timelines in the tech center, reflecting the persistent effort required to overcome rejections. Practitioners should prepare for a lengthy and rigorous prosecution cycle when working with this examiner.
