College Of William & Mary is managing 3 pending office actions in the Computing & Software technology area. These matters are distributed among 3 distinct examiners and 2 distinct art units. This indicates that while each of the 3 pending office actions is being reviewed by a different person, there is some consolidation at the art unit level. The 3 distinct examiners provide 3 separate viewpoints on the company's active applications.
GUGLIOTTA, NICOLE T is the busiest examiner, holding 1 pending office action. Because these actions are contained within only 2 distinct art units, practitioners may find common themes or examination standards across the portfolio. This requires a strategy that accounts for both individual examiner tendencies and the broader policies of the departments involved. The grouping into 2 distinct art units suggests that the Computing & Software technologies are concentrated within a few specialized departments.
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 only | 2 (67%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 1 (33%) |
