Examiner: KARIKARI, KWASI

Analysis

Examiner KWASI KARIKARI manages a large volume of cases in Tech Center 2600 and Art Unit 2617. The examiner has 1302 resolved cases, which is an extensive history that provides very reliable statistical data. This 1302 case count ensures that the performance metrics are stable and representative of the examiner's long-term behavior.

The allowance rate is 80.2 percent. This 80.2 percent rate indicates a very high likelihood of obtaining a patent grant in Art Unit 2617. The interview lift is 6.6 percent, which shows a modest but positive benefit from conducting an interview compared to the 80.2 percent baseline. Practitioners can use the 6.6 percent lift to further improve their chances of success beyond the already high allowance rate.

The median days to allowance is 959. This 959 day duration is the median time for applications to reach a notice of allowance. The combination of an 80.2 percent allowance rate and a 959 day median suggests a predictable and efficient prosecution environment. The data from Tech Center 2600 supports a strategy that leverages the examiner's consistent track record across 1302 resolved cases.
