This examiner grants 85% of resolved cases

Analysis

Nazra Nur Waheed is an examiner in Art Unit 2844 of Tech Center 3600, where they have managed 260 resolved cases. The examiner maintains an allowance rate of 84.6 percent, which suggests a high frequency of successful outcomes for applicants. This rate indicates that the examiner is generally receptive to the patentability of the applications they review within this specific technology area.

Prosecution efficiency is marked by a median days to allowance of 1017. This timeline provides a clear expectation for how long it takes to reach a final grant. Practitioners should note the interview lift of 10.7 percent, which indicates that direct engagement with the examiner provides a measurable increase in the probability of securing an allowance compared to cases without interviews.

While the 10.7 percent lift is positive, the high baseline allowance rate of 84.6 percent suggests that many cases reach a grant through written prosecution alone. However, for more complex applications, the 1017 day median suggests that an early interview could potentially help in maintaining or even accelerating this timeline. Applicants should weigh the benefit of verbal communication against the already favorable grant prospects.
