In Art Unit 1631, the 1600 median days to allowance and 48.5 percent allowance rate suggest that prosecution may be lengthy and difficult. However, the 25.4 percent interview lift offers a significant strategic advantage. With 103 resolved cases, the data is well-supported. Practitioners should prioritize interviews to overcome the challenges reflected in the baseline allowance rate and pendency.
