Technology area: Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics
3 pending office actions • 2 art units • 3 examiners • 0 of 3 (0%) have an AI response strategy ready
Cuberg Inc. manages a company patent portfolio within the Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics technology area. There are currently 3 pending office actions in the portfolio, which are assigned to 3 distinct examiners. This one-to-one ratio between actions and examiners ensures that each matter is being evaluated independently by a different individual. The involvement of 2 distinct art units indicates that the company's research is concentrated within a few specialized technical fields, requiring a focused legal strategy.
The busiest examiner for this portfolio is TRISCHLER, JOHN T, who is handling 1 pending office action. Given that the total count of pending office actions is 3, the workload is distributed such that no single examiner holds a majority of the cases. This distribution requires the company to navigate 3 different examining styles and sets of expectations. Practitioners should be aware that the strategies used for the 1 pending action under the busiest examiner may differ from those required for the other pending matters, as each examiner operates independently.
With 3 distinct examiners spread across 2 distinct art units, there is some overlap where multiple examiners are likely working within the same art unit. This concentration within 2 distinct art units allows for a more focused technical strategy even as the examiners remain separate. The workload is balanced, as the busiest examiner's 1 pending office action is a fraction of the 3 total actions. This structure necessitates a coordinated approach to maintain consistency across the different examiners while addressing the specific requirements of the art units.
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 | 1 (33%) |
| §112 only | 1 (33%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 1 (33%) |
How the docket's pending cases split across USPTO tech-center bands.
Manual office-action response work runs about 10 hours per case. The time-saved bands below show what IP Author's prosecution pipeline typically delivers — a conservative 20% on the low end, 35% in the middle, 50% on the high end.
