This examiner grants 80% of resolved cases

Analysis

Jared Ian Rutz, working in Art Unit 2100 and Tech Center 2100, has resolved 321 cases with a high allowance rate of 80.1%. The data indicates a modest interview lift of 6.4%, suggesting that while interviews are helpful, they are not as transformative as in other dockets. The median days to allowance is 1261. Major companies such as Micron Technology Inc., Microchip Technology Incorporated, and Amd are frequent applicants in this examiner's docket.

Legal representation is often handled by firms like Hovey Williams LLP and Volpe Koenig - AMD. With an 80.1% allowance rate, the likelihood of success is high, though the 1261-day pendency and 6.4% interview lift suggest that standard written prosecution is often sufficient to reach a favorable outcome. Practitioners should weigh the 6.4% lift against the additional effort of an interview, as the baseline success rate is already quite strong. The 1261-day median pendency provides a clear expectation for the total duration of prosecution under this examiner.
