Tech Center 3700 • Art Units: 3774 3785
This examiner grants 66% of resolved cases
Leslie Ann Lopez has resolved 666 cases in Tech Center 3700 and Art Unit 3774. The examiner's allowance rate is 65.5 percent, and the median days to allowance is 1285. These figures provide a benchmark for expected outcomes and pendency. The 1285-day figure is a metric for practitioners to use when managing prosecution timelines. The 65.5 percent rate indicates the likelihood of an application being allowed once it reaches a final resolution.
The interview lift of 34.3 percent indicates that interviews are associated with an increase in the probability of allowance relative to the 65.5 percent baseline. This lift suggests that direct engagement can be a factor in securing an allowance. Practitioners should consider the 34.3 percent lift when managing the 1285-day median pendency. The 666 resolved cases provide the statistical foundation for these metrics. These figures offer a clear view of the prosecution landscape for this examiner.
