This examiner grants 28% of resolved cases
LE, TOBEY CHOU works in Tech Center 1700 and Art Unit 1700. The record includes 36 resolved cases, an allowance rate of 27.8%, and a median of 1221 days to allowance. Interviews are associated with a 51.9% lift in allowance outcomes. Because the resolved-case base is limited, the results should be treated as a directional prosecution signal rather than a definitive forecast.
The recorded companies are Nicoventures Trading Limited, KT&G Corporation, and Japan Tobacco Inc. The listed firms are MERCHANT & GOULD P.C. - BAT, Burr & Forman LLP (Primary Customer Number), and SUGHRUE MION, PLLC. The interview association makes preparation and targeted discussion especially relevant, although counsel should account for the limited record when setting client expectations.
