Technology area: Biotechnology & Pharmaceuticals
5 pending office actions • 3 art units • 5 examiners • 0 of 5 (0%) have an AI response strategy ready
Acies Bio D O O has 5 pending office actions in the Biotechnology & Pharmaceuticals technology area. These actions are distributed among 5 distinct examiners, which means each pending case is being reviewed by a different individual. This distribution suggests that the company's biotech filings are not being clustered under a single examiner.
The portfolio is active in 3 distinct art units. This concentration in 3 units, despite having 5 distinct examiners, indicates that some art units have multiple examiners assigned to the company's cases. Robinson, Hope A is the busiest examiner, holding 1 pending action, which is the same count as the other four examiners.
With 5 distinct examiners and 3 distinct art units, the prosecution of the 5 pending office actions is moderately spread out. The focus on 3 art units allows for some specialization in technical arguments, even though 5 different examiners are involved. Practitioners should analyze the tendencies of Robinson, Hope A and the other examiners within the context of these 3 specific art units.
The strategy for these 5 pending office actions should account for the specific standards of the 3 distinct art units. While Robinson, Hope A is the busiest examiner, their influence is limited to a single action. Therefore, the prosecution team must remain flexible and adapt to the unique requirements of each of the 5 examiners involved.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 1 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
Difficulty is derived from the rejection statutes on the most recent pending office action. §101-driven and multi-statute cases are graded Hard; §112-only and obviousness-type double-patenting cases are graded Easy; everything else is Medium. "Unknown" means we have not yet parsed a statute for that office action.
| Bucket | Cases |
|---|---|
| §103 only | 2 (40%) |
| Double-patenting + other | 1 (20%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 2 (40%) |
