This examiner grants 87% of resolved cases
John B. Strege is a highly experienced examiner in Tech Center 2600 and Art Unit 2624, with 1100 resolved cases. His allowance rate is 87.0 percent, which is exceptionally high. This 87.0 percent rate suggests that Strege is very effective at working with applicants to identify patentable subject matter. For practitioners, being assigned to his docket is a strong indicator that a patent grant is likely if the application meets basic requirements.
The interview lift for Strege is 13.8 percent. While this is a positive number, the high baseline allowance rate suggests that many cases reach allowance through written prosecution alone. However, the 13.8 percent lift still shows that an interview can be a useful tool for resolving complex issues or speeding up the process. Direct communication remains a viable strategy to ensure this advantage is utilized when needed.
The median days to allowance for Strege is 1069. This timeline is quite efficient, especially considering his large volume of 1100 resolved cases. Applicants can expect a grant in an expected timeframe. The data paints a picture of a productive examiner who maintains a high allowance rate while keeping pendency to a median of 1069 days, making his docket one of the more favorable for patent applicants.
