Madhuri R. Herzog examines applications in Tech Center 2400 and Art Unit 2431. With 681 resolved cases, the examiner maintains an allowance rate of 78.3%. This high rate indicates a very favorable environment for applicants, where many cases result in a grant. The median days to allowance is 1073, providing a clear expectation for the duration of the prosecution cycle.
