This examiner grants 70% of resolved cases
Eric M. Thomas is an examiner in Tech Center 3700 and Art Unit 3714, with 750 resolved cases. His allowance rate is 69.9, and the median days to allowance is 1290. These figures suggest a moderate level of difficulty and a longer prosecution timeline for the 750 resolved cases on record. Practitioners should prepare for a thorough examination process.
The interview lift of 14.7 is a useful metric for planning. It indicates that direct engagement can help overcome rejections and improve the 69.9 allowance rate. For the 750 resolved cases, the 1290 days to allowance reflects a detailed review process, and the 14.7 interview lift provides a tactical advantage for applicants seeking to expedite a positive outcome. Engaging the examiner in Art Unit 3714 through an interview can be a productive way to address technical issues. Given the 1290 days of median pendency, the 14.7 lift is a key factor for practitioners to consider when developing their prosecution strategy in Tech Center 3700.
