Analysis

Kabir U Jahangir serves in Tech Center 2400 and Art Unit 2414, where he has overseen 470 resolved cases. The examiner maintains an allowance rate of 87.7 percent. This rate is achieved over a median period of 871 days to allowance. The 470 resolved cases provide a significant sample size for evaluating prosecution trends in this specific art unit. These resolved cases represent the total applications that have reached a final grant or abandonment.

The data indicates an interview lift of 9.0 percent, showing the impact of personal engagement on the 87.7 percent base allowance rate. Although the 87.7 percent allowance rate is already high, the 9.0 percent lift suggests that interviews help resolve remaining issues in a meaningful portion of cases. Practitioners should consider the 871 days to allowance when planning their strategy, as the 9.0 percent lift may help streamline the process. The 470 resolved cases suggest that the 9.0 percent lift is a consistent factor in this examiner's practice.
