Tech Center 4100 • Art Units: 3645 3648 4100
This examiner grants 100% of resolved cases
Ethan Jakob Slaughter has a record of 3 resolved cases in Art Unit 3645. The allowance rate is 100.0 percent, though this is based on a limited sample size in Tech Center 4100. Practitioners should view the 100.0 percent rate as a preliminary indicator rather than a definitive long-term trend given the small number of 3 resolved cases.
The interview lift is 0.0 percent, indicating no change in outcome based on interviews in these specific instances. While the 0.0 percent lift suggests interviews did not impact these few cases, the small sample size makes it difficult to draw broad conclusions for Art Unit 3645. The median days to allowance is 1206, which serves as the current timeframe for successful prosecution.
This 1206-day median pendency is a key factor for applicants to consider when filing in Tech Center 4100. Even with a high initial allowance rate, the duration of 1206 days suggests a steady rather than rapid path to issuance. Practitioners should continue to track these metrics as the examiner's total of resolved cases grows beyond the current 3.
