This examiner grants 82% of resolved cases
Sonia L. Gay, an examiner in Tech Center 2600 and Art Unit 2614, has 880 resolved cases. The allowance rate is 82.4%, which is very favorable and indicates a high probability of success for applicants. This high rate suggests that the majority of applications reach a grant under this examiner's review.
The interview lift is 11.3%, suggesting that interviews are a productive way to address examiner concerns and further increase the likelihood of an allowance.

This timeline is standard for the tech center, indicating that while the process is efficient, it still follows a typical procedural schedule of approximately three years. The combination of a high allowance rate and a positive interview lift makes this a favorable environment for patent prosecution.
