Dexterity Inc. has 22 pending office actions in Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems. The matters involve 22 distinct examiners across 10 distinct art units, creating a broad examiner footprint but a more concentrated art-unit structure. Portfolio management should combine matter-specific examiner analysis with art-unit level monitoring for recurring objections and useful response positions.
NECKEL, NATHAN DANIEL is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending action. The leading examiner does not represent a substantial concentration of the pending workload, so a single-examiner strategy would have limited reach. Counsel may gain more efficiency by grouping matters by art unit while retaining separate records for each examiner’s treatment of the claims.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 8 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. 8 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 (5%) |
| §101 + other | 1 (5%) |
| §103 only | 6 (29%) |
| §102 only | 1 (5%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 12 (57%) |
