Tech Center 2800 • Art Units: 2853
This examiner grants 92% of resolved cases
Sharon A. Polk is an examiner in Tech Center 2800, Art Unit 2853, with a substantial record of 876 resolved cases. Her allowance rate stands at 91.6 percent, reflecting a high frequency of granted patents. Applicants can expect a relatively fast path to resolution, as the median days to allowance is 671. This efficiency is notable given the volume of 876 resolved cases handled by the examiner.
The data indicates that conducting an interview provides a modest benefit, resulting in an interview lift of 6.0 percent. While the 91.6 percent allowance rate is already high, this lift suggests that direct engagement can help overcome remaining hurdles in the 2800 Tech Center. Practitioners should prepare for a 671-day median timeline when navigating Art Unit 2853. The combination of high allowance and low pendency makes this a favorable docket for prosecution.
