This examiner grants 71% of resolved cases
Bradley T King is a patent examiner currently serving in Tech Center 3600 and Art Unit 2841. Over the course of their career, this examiner has reached a final decision on 970 resolved cases. This total includes all applications that have been either granted as patents or abandoned by the applicants. This history of 970 resolved cases provides a statistical foundation for understanding the examiner's decision-making patterns within Art Unit 2841 and Tech Center 3600.
The data shows an allowance rate of 70.8 percent, which reflects the frequency with which applications are successfully prosecuted to a grant. For those applications that achieve an allowance, the median days to allowance is 1133. This duration represents the middle point of the timeline for successful cases, meaning that the prosecution process often requires a commitment of 1133 days to reach a favorable conclusion. This 70.8 percent allowance rate is a critical metric for managing applicant expectations.
Furthermore, the interview lift is 22.5 percent. This 22.5 percent lift indicates the increase in the probability of receiving a grant when an interview is conducted compared to the baseline allowance rate of 70.8 percent. The relationship between the allowance rate and the interview lift suggests that direct engagement with the examiner is a productive strategy. Practitioners may find that this lift is a vital tool for navigating the typical prosecution timeline.
