Alliance for Sustainable Energy LLC has 13 pending office actions in Chemistry & Materials. The matters involve 13 distinct examiners across 11 distinct art units, showing broad distribution across both examiner relationships and technical examination groups.
ALMAWRI, MAGED M is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. The lack of examiner concentration favors centralized tracking of claim terminology and recurring chemistry or materials issues, combined with case-specific analysis for each art unit. The assignment figures do not show whether the applications concern a common research program or present similar patentability questions.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 5 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. 5 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 only | 1 (9%) |
| §103 only | 5 (45%) |
| Double-patenting only | 1 (9%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 4 (36%) |
