Tech Center 3600 • Art Units: 3628
This examiner grants 34% of resolved cases
Bryan J Kirk examines applications in Art Unit 3628 of Tech Center 3600. He has 229 resolved cases and an allowance rate of 33.6%. This rate indicates a challenging prosecution environment where many applications are abandoned, requiring persistence and technical clarity from applicants to reach a grant.
However, the interview lift is 43.7%. This suggests that interviews are an exceptionally powerful tool for this examiner. Applicants who engage in interviews have a much higher chance of overcoming the 33.6% baseline allowance rate. Direct communication appears to be the most effective way to address the examiner's concerns and move toward a successful outcome.
The median days to allowance is 1348. This long timeline reflects the difficulty of the docket. Practitioners should be prepared for a long process and should use interviews early to improve their chances of success. Leveraging the 43.7% interview lift is critical for navigating the 1348-day median prosecution period effectively.
