HKC Corporation Limited has 20 pending office actions in Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics. The actions are distributed among 20 distinct examiners and 13 distinct art units. This is a one-to-one examiner allocation, combined with repeated placement in several art units.
GYAWALI, BIPIN is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. No examiner carries a larger identified group in the supplied data. The portfolio therefore calls for application-level docket control, with art-unit review used to coordinate technical positions where multiple matters encounter related examination environments.
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 | 7 (32%) |
| §102 only | 1 (5%) |
| §112 only | 3 (14%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 10 (45%) |
| No statute on record | 1 (5%) |
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.
