This examiner grants 35% of resolved cases
Katherine Deguire Leblanc is an examiner in Art Unit 1781, within Tech Center 1700. She has 616 resolved cases, providing a substantial amount of data for analysis. The allowance rate is 34.6 percent, which is on the lower side and indicates a rigorous examination process. However, the interview lift is a remarkable 35.8 percent. This exceptionally high lift suggests that interviews are an extremely effective way to overcome rejections and secure an allowance. Practitioners should consider an interview to be a mandatory part of their strategy with this examiner.
The median time to allowance is 1397 days, which is a long prosecution timeline of nearly four years. This 1397-day duration, combined with the 34.6 percent allowance rate, highlights the challenges of working in Art Unit 1781. However, the 35.8 percent interview lift provides a clear path to improving those odds. With 616 resolved cases, the examiner is consistent in her approach. Practitioners should leverage the lift as early as possible to avoid the long delays indicated by the 1397-day median pendency. The data from Tech Center 1700 suggests that the interview is the most critical tool for success.
