Tech Center 3600 • Art Units: 3612 3662
This examiner grants 88% of resolved cases
Dana Deshawn Ivey is an examiner in Tech Center 3600 and Art Unit 3612. She has 784 resolved cases. Her allowance rate is 88.5 percent, which is a very high grant rate. This 88.5 percent figure indicates a very favorable environment for applicants, with nearly nine out of every ten resolved cases resulting in a notice of allowance during the prosecution process.
The interview lift is 6.4 percent. This 6.4 percent lift is modest, as the 88.5 percent baseline allowance rate is already quite high. Most cases reach allowance through standard written prosecution without the need for an interview lift, but an interview can still be a useful tool for resolving any minor technical issues or claim language concerns that may arise.
The median days to allowance is 724. This 724 day timeline is efficient for the tech center. The combination of an 88.5 percent allowance rate and a 724 day median makes this a very favorable docket for applicants, providing both a high probability of success and a relatively fast path to the issuance of a patent.
