Analysis

Dawn Trinah Haynes is an examiner in Tech Center 3600, specifically Art Unit 1758. The examiner has 79 resolved cases and an allowance rate of 2.5 percent. This extremely low rate indicates a very challenging prosecution environment where the vast majority of applications do not reach a grant. The 79 resolved cases provide a clear indication of the rigorous standards applied by this examiner in Tech Center 3600.

The interview lift for this examiner is 0.9 percent. This very low lift suggests that interviews have almost no impact on the probability of allowance. Given that the baseline allowance rate is only 2.5 percent, the 0.9 percent lift indicates that verbal communication is rarely effective at overcoming rejections in this docket, and practitioners should be prepared for a difficult prosecution path in Art Unit 1758.

The median days to allowance for the few successful cases is 1143. This pendency figure reflects the time required to navigate this difficult docket. Given the 2.5 percent allowance rate and the 1143 day median, applicants face significant hurdles and should carefully evaluate their strategies when appearing before this examiner in Tech Center 3600.
