This examiner grants 52% of resolved cases
Nicholas K Phan has resolved 137 cases in Tech Center 3600 and Art Unit 2499. The allowance rate is 51.8 percent, which is a more challenging rate that suggests a rigorous examination process. This 51.8 percent rate indicates that approximately half of the applications reach a successful conclusion. The 137 resolved cases provide a sufficient dataset for understanding the examiner's typical approach to prosecution. Practitioners should prepare for a balanced path that may involve multiple rounds of rejection.
The interview lift is 18.8 percent, showing that interviews are a productive way to improve the chances of success. This 18.8 percent lift is particularly important given the 51.8 percent baseline allowance rate, as it may be the key to overcoming difficult rejections. The median days to allowance is 1218, indicating a lengthy prosecution cycle for those applications that reach a grant. Practitioners should prioritize scheduling interviews to manage this 1218-day timeline effectively. The data suggests that verbal advocacy is a valuable tool for improving the probability of a grant in this docket.
