Tech Center 2100 • Art Units: 2126

This examiner grants 7% of resolved cases

Analysis

Examiner DEVAN KAPOOR is assigned to Tech Center 2100 and Art Unit 2126. The examiner has 14 resolved cases, which offers an initial view into the prosecution environment for this docket. While the 14 resolved cases provide more data than a nascent profile, the sample size remains small compared to more senior examiners.

The allowance rate is 7.1 percent. This 7.1 percent rate indicates a challenging path to grant, with a high proportion of cases resulting in abandonment. The interview lift is 11.1 percent, which suggests that interviews may provide a significant relative improvement in the chances of success compared to the 7.1 percent baseline. Given the low 7.1 percent rate, the 11.1 percent lift is a critical factor for practitioners to consider.

The median days to allowance is 1583. This 1583 day timeframe is notably long, reflecting the extended effort required to secure an allowance in Art Unit 2126. Practitioners should prepare for a prolonged prosecution cycle when facing the 7.1 percent allowance rate. The 1583 days to allowance serves as a primary indicator of the temporal investment needed for applications in Tech Center 2100.
