Analysis

Rashawn N. Tillery works in Art Unit 2145 within Tech Center 3600. The examiner has overseen 630 resolved cases to date. The data reveals an allowance rate of 64.9 percent, which is the metric for assessing the probability of a grant for applications assigned to this specific examiner. This 64.9 percent rate provides a baseline for practitioners navigating the prosecution process.

The impact of interviews is present in Tillery's caseload, with an interview lift of 11.2 percent. This 11.2 percent increase in the allowance rate following an interview indicates that direct dialogue is a mechanism for advancing prosecution. Practitioners should weigh this lift when determining the most effective way to respond to office actions in Art Unit 2145.

Prosecution under Tillery involves a specific timeline, as evidenced by the median days to allowance of 1437. This 1437-day duration is a factor for applicants to consider when managing their patent portfolios. The combination of a 64.9 percent allowance rate and the 1437-day median suggests that success for the 630 resolved cases may require an extended period of negotiation.
