This examiner grants 78% of resolved cases
Examiner Ryan J. Rink is part of Tech Center 3600 and Art Unit 3619. The examiner has 487 resolved cases, offering a significant amount of data for practitioners. The allowance rate is 78.4%, which is high and suggests a favorable environment for applicants. This 78.4% rate indicates that the majority of cases result in a granted patent.
The interview lift is 10.8%. This figure shows that interviews provide a modest but measurable benefit. While the baseline allowance rate is already strong, the 10.8% lift suggests that direct engagement can still help resolve outstanding issues and secure a grant more effectively during the prosecution process.
The median days to allowance is 900. This is a relatively efficient timeline, and practitioners can use this 900-day figure to set realistic expectations for their clients. With 487 resolved cases, the examiner's trends are well-established in Art Unit 3619. The combination of a 78.4% allowance rate and a fast median pendency suggests a predictable and generally successful prosecution path.
