Examiner: ORTIZ, ANGELA Y

Analysis

Angela Y Ortiz is an examiner in Tech Center 3600 and Art Unit 1789, with 47 resolved cases. The allowance rate is a low 6.4%, which indicates a challenging environment for applicants. The median days to allowance is 1421, suggesting that the cases that are allowed take a long time to reach that stage. This 1421-day figure, combined with the 6.4% success rate, highlights the difficulty of prosecution in this unit.

The interview lift is 0.0%. This 0.0% lift suggests that for the 47 resolved cases, conducting an interview did not increase the likelihood of receiving an allowance. This is a critical insight for practitioners, as it implies that the 6.4% baseline allowance rate is difficult to overcome even with direct engagement. Given the 1421-day median pendency, attorneys should be prepared for a rigorous examination process where interviews have not yet shown a statistical benefit in the current data.
