Analysis

Beatriz A Ramirez Bravo examines applications in Tech Center 4100 and Art Unit 2123. With 100 resolved cases, the examiner maintains an allowance rate of 64.0 percent. This figure indicates that a majority of cases eventually reach allowance. However, the process involves a median days to allowance of 1660. This timeline suggests that while the probability of success is 64.0 percent, the path to a patent involves a specific time commitment.

The interview lift of 28.9 percent is a factor for prosecution strategy. This lift suggests that verbal communication can bridge the gap between initial rejections and the final allowance. For the 100 cases resolved so far, the data implies that proactive engagement is a useful tactic. Practitioners should account for the 1660-day median pendency when setting expectations for clients in Art Unit 2123. The 28.9 percent lift provides a clear incentive to request interviews during the examination process.
