Analysis

Anabel Ton is an examiner in Tech Center 2800, working in Art Unit 1743. She has a volume of 1258 resolved cases. The allowance rate is 87.4 percent, which indicates a favorable environment for patent applicants. This 87.4 percent rate provides a benchmark for the probability of success for applications reaching a final resolution.

The interview lift is 2.5 percent. While this 2.5 percent lift is positive, it suggests that interviews have a limited impact on the already high 87.4 percent allowance rate. Most of the 1258 resolved cases appear to be resolved successfully through written prosecution alone in Art Unit 1743.

The median days to allowance is 715. This 715-day duration is the timeline for reaching a grant. For the applications handled by Ton, the combination of an 87.4 percent allowance rate and a 715-day median suggests a streamlined prosecution process for applications assigned to Tech Center 2800.
