MRUK, BRIAN P is the busiest examiner with 1 pending action. Counsel can use a coordinated portfolio review to identify recurring chemistry terminology and disclosure themes, while tailoring each response to the assigned art unit and examiner.
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.
