This examiner grants 9% of resolved cases
Patrick Mcatee works in Tech Center 3600 and Art Unit 3685. He has 224 resolved cases and a low allowance rate of 9.4 percent. This indicates a very challenging environment where the vast majority of applications do not result in a grant. The median days to allowance for the few cases that are successful is 1476, reflecting a long and difficult prosecution timeline.
The interview lift is 12.1 percent. Given the low baseline allowance rate of 9.4 percent, an interview represents a critical tool for practitioners, as it more than doubles the likelihood of success. The 12.1 percent lift suggests that direct communication can help navigate the significant hurdles presented by this examiner. Applicants should be prepared for a lengthy process of 1476 days and should prioritize interviews to improve their chances of overcoming the low baseline rate.
