Listed by the USPTO as MICHAUD, NICHOLAS BRIAN
Tech Center 2800 • Art Units: 2818
This examiner grants 75% of resolved cases
MICHAUD, NICHOLAS BRIAN examines in tech center 2800 and art unit 2818. The profile covers 60 resolved cases and shows a 75.0% allowance rate. The interview lift is 30.0%, indicating a meaningful positive association with allowance outcomes. The median time to allowance is 1204 days.
The listed companies are Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company, Ltd., KIOXIA Corporation, and Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. The listed firms are BIRCH STEWART KOLASCH & BIRCH, LLP, Kim & Stewart LLP- TMC, and Brooks Kushman P.C. The limited case volume means that the figures should be treated as directional. They nevertheless support combining a favorable allowance expectation with deliberate interview preparation. The median timing indicates that applicants should plan for a substantial prosecution period rather than assume rapid disposition.
