Tech Center 2600 • Art Units: 2638 2664
This examiner grants 80% of resolved cases
Heath E. Wells maintains a high allowance rate of 80.0 percent across 105 resolved cases in Tech Center 2600. The median days to allowance is 1163, showing that while grants are frequent, they follow a timeline of 1163 days. This examiner operates in Art Unit 2638 and appears to be generally receptive to patent applications. The 80.0 percent allowance rate provides a strong foundation for a successful prosecution strategy.
The interview lift is relatively low at 6.2 percent. Given the 80.0 percent baseline allowance rate, the examiner appears to be generally inclined toward granting patents regardless of whether an interview occurs. Practitioners might find that well-reasoned written responses are sufficient for success here, as the marginal benefit of an interview is small. However, the 1163-day median pendency suggests that while the outcome is likely positive, the process involves a significant duration. Applicants should focus on maintaining the 80.0 percent success rate through clear and thorough documentation. The examiner's history across 105 cases indicates a consistent and reliable approach to patent examination that favors the applicant.
