Analysis

George Nicholas Renze is an examiner in Tech Center 2600, working within Art Unit 2613. He has overseen 36 resolved cases, a volume that establishes a statistical profile for his examination habits. His allowance rate of 72.2% indicates a high frequency of granted patents among the cases he has finalized. This rate serves as a baseline for applicants entering prosecution in his docket.

The efficiency of the process is reflected in a median days to allowance of 942. This timeframe indicates that successful applications typically move through the system in under one thousand days. Furthermore, the data highlights an interview lift of 19.2%. This figure suggests that engaging in direct dialogue with the examiner enhances the probability of reaching an allowance beyond the 72.2% standard rate.

For practitioners, the 19.2% lift is a compelling reason to consider interviews during the prosecution cycle. Given the 36 resolved cases, the examiner appears to be responsive to such interactions. Balancing the 942-day median duration with the high 72.2% allowance rate allows for a strategic approach to case management. The combination of these metrics points toward a collaborative prosecution environment.
