Tech Center 2800 • Art Units: 2853

This examiner grants 100% of resolved cases

Analysis

Kyra Melor Van Kreuningen has resolved 7 cases in Art Unit 2853. All 7 cases were allowed, resulting in a 100.0 percent allowance rate. The median days to allowance is 815. In Tech Center 2800, these 7 cases suggest an efficient and successful prosecution path. The 815-day timeline and 100.0 percent allowance rate were achieved without any recorded benefit from interviews, as shown by the 0.0 percent lift.

The 100.0 percent allowance rate across 7 cases indicates a favorable environment for applicants. However, the 0.0 percent interview lift suggests that formal interviews may not be a necessary component of this success. Practitioners should focus on the 815-day median pendency when planning their prosecution strategy in Art Unit 2853. While the 100.0 percent rate is based on a small sample of 7 cases, the 815-day timeframe is a positive indicator of the examiner's efficiency in Tech Center 2800.
