Adeia Imaging LLC currently manages 11 pending office actions in the Communications technology area. These actions are distributed among 9 distinct examiners and 7 distinct art units. The busiest examiner, HILAIRE, CLIFFORD, is responsible for 2 pending office actions. This distribution shows that while most cases are handled by different individuals, there is some concentration of workload and administrative oversight.
With 11 pending office actions, the company must adapt to various individual styles across 9 distinct examiners. The 7 distinct art units involved suggest that the portfolio covers several different technical sub-sectors across 7 different art units within communications. Because the busiest examiner has 2 pending actions, there is a small opportunity for consistent feedback in a portion of the portfolio. However, the majority of the 11 pending actions will require unique strategies tailored to these examiners and the 7 different art units.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 3 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
Every pending office action with a known statutory deadline, placed on a days-until-due axis. Dots left of Today are overdue; the further right, the more runway. Cases that share a deadline window stack vertically. 3 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date.
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 |
|---|---|
| §101 + other | 1 (8%) |
| §103 only | 5 (42%) |
| §102 only | 1 (8%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 5 (42%) |
