Technology area: Computing & Software
3 pending office actions • 3 art units • 3 examiners • 0 of 3 (0%) have an AI response strategy ready • 6 patents granted in the last 365 days
Appian Corporation has 3 pending office actions in the Computing & Software technology area. These matters are assigned to 3 distinct examiners and 3 distinct art units. TORGRIMSON, TYLER J is the busiest examiner, overseeing 1 pending office action.
The 3 pending office actions are evenly distributed across 3 distinct examiners and 3 distinct art units. This reflects a perfectly distributed workload where each of the 3 pending office actions is handled by a different examiner. Practitioners must navigate 3 separate examiner styles to resolve the current pending matters within the Computing & Software sector.
The use of 3 distinct art units for 3 pending office actions suggests a lack of examiner concentration. Because TORGRIMSON, TYLER J only manages 1 pending office action, no single examiner's tendencies dominate the portfolio. This variety requires a flexible prosecution approach to accommodate the distinct procedural tendencies of 3 different examiners across 3 different art units.
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.
