Ariel Scientific Innovations Ltd. has 13 pending office actions in Biotechnology & Pharmaceuticals. The matters involve 13 distinct examiners and 12 distinct art units, so prosecution is spread broadly across the technology area with limited art-unit repetition.
NGUYEN, SANG H is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. No examiner has a material concentration in the profile, making matter-level tracking important. Counsel should organize prior-art analysis and amendment strategy around the individual art-unit assignments rather than rely on a single portfolio-wide examiner playbook.
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 only | 1 (8%) |
| §101 + other | 2 (17%) |
| §103 only | 5 (42%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 4 (33%) |
