Analysis

Sriharsha Reddy Vangapaty has resolved 6 cases in Tech Center 2400, specifically within Art Unit 2112. The allowance rate of 50.0 percent indicates a moderate path to grant compared to the 100.0 percent maximum.

This duration is a key factor for practitioners to consider when managing client expectations regarding patent pendency.

The most notable data point is the interview lift of 100.0 percent, which indicates a significant increase in allowance probability compared to cases where no interview was conducted.

These firms have established a presence in Art Unit 2112. The 100.0 percent interview lift suggests that direct engagement with the examiner is the most productive way to advance prosecution in this docket.
