Tech Center 1600 • Art Units: 1611

This examiner grants 28% of resolved cases

Analysis

Isis A. D. Ghali, in Tech Center 1600 and Art Unit 1611, has an allowance rate of 27.9% across 852 resolved cases. The median days to allowance is 1599, indicating a long prosecution process for those seeking a grant. This 1599-day figure and the 27.9% allowance rate reflect a challenging environment. Practitioners should prepare for a sustained effort when navigating applications under this examiner's review.

However, the interview lift is 41.6%, which is very high compared to the 27.9% allowance rate. This 41.6% lift suggests that interviews are a powerful tool for overcoming rejections. Given the 1599-day median pendency and the 852 resolved cases, early and frequent interviews are likely the most effective strategy. The 41.6% lift provides a significant opportunity to improve the probability of success beyond the 27.9% baseline in Art Unit 1611.
