This examiner grants 50% of resolved cases
Austin Q. Le has resolved 171 cases in Tech Center 1700, specifically in Art Unit 1651. The examiner's allowance rate of 49.7 percent indicates a balanced outcome between grants and abandonments, suggesting that applicants face a significant hurdle in securing a patent. This 49.7 percent rate implies that about half of the applications in this unit will require substantial effort to reach a grant.
The interview lift of 31.0 percent is notable, implying that interviews are an effective method for resolving issues and moving toward an allowance. The median days to allowance is 1354, which represents a long prosecution timeline that requires patience. Practitioners should use the 31.0 percent lift strategically to navigate this environment, as the data suggests that direct communication is one of the most effective ways to improve the odds of success. The 1354-day median pendency highlights the importance of a proactive and well-planned prosecution strategy.
