Analysis

Linda Tang Huynh is an examiner in Tech Center 2100, assigned to Art Unit 2145. The examiner has 287 resolved cases, providing a substantial dataset for practitioners to analyze. The data indicates an allowance rate of 38.0 percent, which suggests a challenging environment for applicants. This 38.0 percent rate is the primary baseline for prosecution in this docket.

The median time to allowance is 1384 days. This 1384-day timeline is quite long, indicating a protracted prosecution process. Practitioners must factor this 1384-day duration into their strategic planning and client communications. While the 38.0 percent allowance rate is low, the time required to reach that outcome is a significant factor in Art Unit 2145.

The interview lift for this examiner is 31.0 percent. This significant lift demonstrates that conducting an interview is a highly effective strategy. A 31.0 percent increase in the likelihood of allowance following an interview is a strong signal that direct engagement is very beneficial. Practitioners in Tech Center 2100 should utilize this 31.0 percent lift to significantly improve their odds beyond the 38.0 percent base rate.
