Prasad V Gokhale is an examiner in Tech Center 3600, Art Unit 2834, with 989 resolved cases. The examiner has an allowance rate of 85.9 percent, which is very high for such a large volume of applications. This suggests a very consistent and favorable approach to patent examination across the 989 resolved cases in Art Unit 2834.

This indicates that while the overall allowance rate is already 85.9 percent, an interview can still provide a benefit in securing a grant.

The combination of the allowance rate and the 768 day median pendency makes this examiner one of the most efficient in Tech Center 3600.
