This examiner grants 93% of resolved cases
Kyoung Lee is an examiner in Tech Center 2800 and Art Unit 2800. He has a very high volume of 1006 resolved cases, providing a wealth of data for practitioners. His allowance rate is 93.2 percent, which is exceptionally high. This 93.2 percent rate indicates that almost every application he resolves results in a patent grant, making him an applicant-friendly examiner.
The interview lift for this examiner is 5.0 percent. With a baseline allowance rate of 93.2 percent, there is very little room for an interview to provide a large lift. The 5.0 percent figure shows that while interviews are not strictly necessary for success, they still offer a slight advantage. The 1006 resolved cases confirm that this high allowance rate is a consistent part of his practice in Art Unit 2800.
The median days to allowance is 695. This is an impressively fast timeline, suggesting that he processes cases much more quickly than the USPTO average. Applicants can expect a grant in a relatively short timeframe. The combination of a 93.2 percent allowance rate and a 695-day median makes prosecution under his review very efficient.
