Tech Center 3600 • Art Units: 3652 3662
This examiner grants 45% of resolved cases
Elizabeth J. Slowik has 84 resolved cases in Art Unit 3652. Her allowance rate is 45.2%, which is on the lower side for Tech Center 3600. The median days to allowance is 1104, representing the typical time spent in prosecution. These 84 cases suggest a rigorous examination style that requires careful attention to detail.
The interview lift is 5.7%, which is relatively low compared to other examiners. This suggests that interviews may not be as transformative for the 45.2% allowance rate as they are elsewhere. Practitioners should focus on robust written arguments to navigate the 1104-day process. Given the 5.7% lift, an interview should be used primarily for clarification rather than as a primary strategy for overcoming rejections. Success with this examiner likely depends on the strength of the initial application and subsequent amendments.
