Tech Center 2800 • Art Units: 2875 2885

This examiner grants 68% of resolved cases

Analysis

Bryon T. Gyllstrom has a high volume of 892 resolved cases in Art Unit 2875 within Tech Center 2800. The examiner's allowance rate of 67.8 percent reflects a moderate level of difficulty for applicants. The median days to allowance is 776, which indicates a relatively fast processing time for companies like Signify Holding B.V., Hella GmbH & Co. KGaA, and Honda Motor Co., Ltd.

The data shows an interview lift of 7.5 percent, providing a modest increase to the 67.8 percent baseline allowance rate. Firms such as OBLON, MCCLELLAND, MAIER & NEUSTADT, L.L.P. and ALSTON & BIRD LLP may use interviews to resolve specific issues, though the 7.5 percent lift is not as transformative as in other profiles. CHRISTENSEN O'CONNOR JOHNSON KINDNESS PLLC also frequently manages cases with this 776-day median pendency.

With 892 resolved cases, the statistics for this examiner are well-established. The 67.8 percent allowance rate and 776-day median pendency suggest that while the examiner is efficient, applicants must still present strong technical arguments. The 7.5 percent lift remains a useful tool for practitioners seeking to expedite the 776-day timeline.
