GUMP, MICHAEL ANTHONY is a USPTO patent examiner in tech center 3700 and art unit 1713. The record covers 208 resolved cases, with an allowance rate of 64.4% and an interview lift of 52.1%. The median time to allowance is 4742 days. The interview measure is a prominent feature of the profile, showing a substantial association with allowance outcomes in the recorded cases.

The associated firms are OLIFF PLC, BakerHostetler, and Dorsey & Whitney - SLC. Applicants may benefit from early interview planning supported by technically focused claim amendments.
