Baker Hughes Holdings LLC maintains a portfolio with 12 pending office actions focused in the Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics technology area. These actions are distributed across 12 distinct examiners, indicating a broad range of individual oversight for the company's pending matters. Despite the high number of actions, the busiest examiner, DUMBRIS, SETH M, is responsible for only 1 pending action, showing that no single examiner holds a majority of the workload.
The prosecution activity spans 8 distinct art units, which suggests that while the technology area is Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics, the specific applications are diverse enough to be classified across multiple administrative divisions. The ratio of 12 distinct examiners to 12 pending office actions confirms that every current action is being reviewed by a different official. This distribution may require the company to navigate various examiner styles and art unit preferences simultaneously across its 12 active matters.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 4 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. 4 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 | 6 (50%) |
| §103 only | 4 (33%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 1 (8%) |
