SIMMONS, CHRIS E is assigned to Tech Center 1600 and Art Unit 1612. The profile covers 688 resolved cases, with a 34.2% allowance rate and a 19.6% interview lift. The allowance rate indicates a challenging recorded outcome pattern, while the interview figure suggests that examiner engagement can help but is not by itself a dominant solution. Counsel should develop a detailed written response that distinguishes the claims from the cited art and use interviews to clarify remaining disputes.
The median time to allowance is 1507 days. General Oncology Inc., Sparrow Pharmaceuticals Inc., and Zoetis LLC are the listed leading companies. The listed firms are COOLEY LLP, FENWICK & WEST LLP, and HAMILTON, BROOK, SMITH & REYNOLDS, P.C. The profile calls for sustained prosecution management, including early identification of the strongest claim limitations and realistic planning for duration. Applicants may also benefit from coordinating interview objectives with the amendment and evidentiary strategy.
