This examiner grants 21% of resolved cases
Alyssa Lee Kuykendall is an examiner in Tech Center 1700, specifically in Art Unit 1692. She has handled 24 resolved cases to date. The allowance rate is 20.8 percent, which is quite low and indicates a very challenging examination environment. Practitioners should be prepared for a rigorous process and a high likelihood of rejection. The 20.8 percent rate suggests that only a small portion of applications reach a grant under this examiner's review.
The interview lift is an extraordinary 95.0 percent. This figure is exceptionally high and suggests that almost every allowance granted by this examiner involved an interview. The median time to allowance is 1347 days. This is a long prosecution timeline, which is consistent with the low allowance rate. However, the 95.0 percent lift provides a critical strategic insight: an interview is essentially a requirement for success. Practitioners should plan for an interview as early as possible to overcome the 20.8 percent baseline allowance rate. Navigating the 1347 days of median pendency will likely require persistent and direct engagement with the examiner.
