This examiner grants 49% of resolved cases
Bonita Khlok examines applications in Tech Center 3700 and Art Unit 1725, with 212 resolved cases on record. The allowance rate of 49.1 percent suggests a competitive prosecution environment. This process takes a median of 1462 days to reach allowance, indicating a significant time investment for applicants.
The most critical data point is the interview lift of 48.3 percent, which is comparable to the overall allowance rate. This suggests that conducting an interview significantly increases the chances of success compared to the 49.1 percent baseline. For the 212 cases handled, an interview appears to be an essential tactical step. Given the 1462-day median duration, practitioners should use the 48.3 percent lift early in the process to avoid unnecessary delays in Art Unit 1725. This strategy is vital for navigating the complex requirements of the unit.
