Ampere Computing LLC has 10 pending office actions in Computing & Software. The matters are assigned across 10 examiners and 8 art units, creating a broad prosecution footprint with examiner-specific issues likely to require separate handling.
MCMAHON, DANIEL F is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. No examiner accounts for multiple pending actions in the reported data, so counsel’s principal management challenge is coordinating many individual examination records rather than concentrating on one docket.
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 |
|---|---|
| §101 + other | 1 (9%) |
| §103 only | 6 (55%) |
| §112 only | 1 (9%) |
| Double-patenting only | 1 (9%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 2 (18%) |
