This examiner grants 21% of resolved cases
Sue Xu Liu examines applications in Tech Center 1600 and Art Unit 1616, where they have handled 239 resolved cases. The allowance rate of 20.9 percent indicates a challenging environment for applicants, as a significant majority of cases do not result in a grant. However, the interview lift of 18.6 percent suggests that engaging in a dialogue with the examiner can increase the chances of success compared to the baseline rate.
The prosecution process is relatively lengthy, with a median of 1614 days to allowance. This 1614-day figure reflects the time often required to overcome rejections in this art unit. Practitioners should prepare for a rigorous examination process, given that the 20.9 percent allowance rate is notably low. The 18.6 percent interview lift should be viewed as a vital tactic for navigating these difficulties.
With 239 resolved cases, the examiner's statistics are well-defined. The 1614-day median to allowance serves as a critical planning metric for stakeholders. Because the allowance rate is 20.9 percent, applicants must be precise in their claim drafting and proactive in using interviews to leverage the 18.6 percent lift.
