Tech Center 1700 • Art Units: 1776 1779
This examiner grants 60% of resolved cases
Patrick James Orme works within Tech Center 1700 and Art Unit 1776, having handled 490 resolved cases. The allowance rate of 59.8% indicates the likelihood of applications resulting in a grant. However, the median days to allowance is 1311, which points toward a prolonged examination period. This 1311-day duration is a key metric for applicants to use when budgeting for prosecution costs and time-to-market for their intellectual property.
The data also reveals an interview lift of 13.8%. While this lift is positive, it suggests that while interviews are helpful, they may not be as transformative as they are for other examiners. Nevertheless, the 13.8% increase over the 59.8% baseline still represents a valuable opportunity to advance prosecution. With 490 resolved cases as a foundation, practitioners can conclude that an interview is a useful tactic to navigate the 1311-day median path to allowance.
