Analysis

Jaison P. Thomas serves in Tech Center 1700, specifically Art Unit 1761, where he has processed 685 resolved cases. He grants patents at an 82.8% allowance rate, with a median days to allowance of 904. These figures suggest a favorable environment for applicants seeking protection for chemical or materials science innovations. The 904 median days to allowance provides a clear expectation for the time required to reach a grant.

The interview lift of 17.6% is a critical metric for practitioners, as it demonstrates a substantial benefit to scheduling formal discussions with the examiner. This lift indicates that oral advocacy significantly improves the probability of success compared to the baseline allowance rate. Panasonic Holdings Corporation, DuPont Toray Specialty Materials K.K., and Toyota Motor Corporation are prominent companies in his portfolio. These entities represent the primary corporate interests in his examination history.

Legal representation is frequently provided by firms such as Warner Norcross + Judd LLP, Boone IP Law, PLLC, and Casimir Jones, S.C. The combination of an 82.8% allowance rate and a 17.6% interview lift suggests that a proactive strategy is highly effective in Art Unit 1761. Applicants should factor the 904 median days to allowance into their prosecution timelines. The 685 resolved cases provide a reliable basis for these strategic observations.
