28 pending office actions • 9 art units • 25 examiners • 0 of 28 (0%) have an AI response strategy ready • 63 patents granted in the last 365 days
CommScope Technologies LLC has 28 pending office actions in Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics. Those matters involve 25 distinct examiners across 9 distinct art units. The distribution therefore spans multiple examination assignments rather than concentrating in a single art unit.
PAK, SUNG H is the busiest examiner, with 3 pending matters. That examiner accounts for a limited portion of the pending work, while the broader examiner and art-unit coverage indicates that prosecution management must address varied examination contexts. Counsel may benefit from tracking matter-specific issues and examiner practices instead of relying on a single portfolio-wide response strategy.
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 |
|---|---|
| §103 only | 11 (39%) |
| §102 only | 2 (7%) |
| Double-patenting only | 2 (7%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 13 (46%) |
