This examiner grants 100% of resolved cases
Benjamin L. Utech serves in Tech Center 1700 and Art Unit 1700. His record includes 31 resolved cases with an allowance rate pct of 100.0%. This 100.0% rate indicates that every case resolved by this examiner has resulted in an allowance. The median days to allowance is 1322, which suggests a lengthy prosecution process. Practitioners should factor this 1322 days duration into their expectations for Art Unit 1700.
The data also shows an interview lift pct of 0.0%. This 0.0% figure indicates that the 100.0% allowance rate was achieved without a recorded statistical benefit from interviews. With 31 resolved cases, the examiner's tendencies suggest that written prosecution has been sufficient for success. However, the 1322 days median pendency is a significant factor for applicants to consider. The 100.0% allowance rate remains a strong baseline for Tech Center 1700, while the 0.0% lift reflects the historical outcomes of these 31 resolved cases.
