19 pending office actions • 14 art units • 19 examiners • 0 of 19 (0%) have an AI response strategy ready • 10 patents granted in the last 365 days
Dongguan Amperex Technology Limited has 19 pending office actions in Chemistry & Materials. The matters involve 19 distinct examiners across 14 distinct art units, demonstrating a widely distributed prosecution workload. The examiner count matches the pending-matter count, so the record assigns each matter to a distinct examiner.
WILKERSON, JORDAN PATRICK is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. No listed examiner has a larger allocation, which favors matter-specific review rather than reliance on a dominant examiner pattern.
The art-unit distribution remains broad, but is narrower than the examiner distribution. Counsel can use technical-unit grouping to identify shared issues while preserving separate response plans for each examiner assignment.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 5 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. 5 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 | 12 (63%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 7 (37%) |
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.
