This examiner grants 63% of resolved cases
Michael J Logie has managed 805 resolved cases in Tech Center 4100. Working in Art Unit 2800, the examiner has an allowance rate of 63.4 percent. The median days to allowance for these cases is 937, which is a benchmark for prosecution duration. Practitioners can use this 937-day figure to manage expectations for the time required to reach a grant. The 63.4 percent rate establishes the frequency of successful outcomes for applications in this docket.
The interview lift of 9.3 percent indicates an increase in the probability of allowance compared to the 63.4 percent base rate. This lift suggests that interviews are a productive tool for resolving prosecution issues. With 805 resolved cases, the data provides a statistical basis for strategic planning. Practitioners should factor the 937-day median pendency into their decision to request an interview. The 9.3 percent lift is a measurable indicator of the impact of direct communication with the examiner.
