Examiner: LAUTURE, JOSEPH J

Analysis

Joseph J Lauture is an examiner in Tech Center 2800 and Art Unit 2819 with a volume of 774 resolved cases. He maintains an allowance rate of 95.0%. Furthermore, the median days to allowance is 625, representing the prosecution environment for these applications. This 625-day median allows for patent grants across the 774 resolved cases within a specific timeframe. The high 95.0% rate suggests that the examiner and applicants frequently reach an agreement on patentable subject matter without extensive delays.

Because the allowance rate is 95.0%, the interview lift is 0.9%. This suggests that interviews provide a small additional benefit compared to the 95.0% baseline success rate, as applications often proceed to allowance through standard written prosecution. With 774 resolved cases and a 625-day median timeline, this examiner demonstrates a consistent process. Practitioners can expect success without relying heavily on the 0.9% lift provided by interviews. The 95.0% allowance rate and 625-day duration define the venue for patent prosecution, where the 0.9% lift indicates that verbal advocacy is rarely the deciding factor in a grant.
