Cornelis Networks Inc. has 5 pending office actions in the Networking & Security technology area. These are handled by 4 distinct examiners, which means at least one examiner is managing more than one case. DABIPI, DIXON F is the busiest examiner, with 2 pending actions.
The portfolio is spread across 4 distinct art units. This is a high number of units relative to the 5 total pending office actions, suggesting that each application may fall into a different technical category. The ratio of 4 distinct examiners to the 5 pending office actions shows a moderate level of examiner variety.
With 4 distinct art units involved, the company's networking innovations are being reviewed by several different specialized divisions. The busiest examiner workload of 2 pending actions represents the primary concentration of workload for the 5 pending office actions. This distribution across 4 distinct examiners and 4 distinct art units indicates a technically diverse but small portfolio.
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.
