128 pending office actions • 46 art units • 113 examiners • 0 of 128 (0%) have an AI response strategy ready • 281 patents granted in the last 365 days
Innolux Corporation has 134 pending office actions in Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics. The portfolio spans 118 distinct examiners and 46 distinct art units, demonstrating extensive examiner coverage across a substantial set of examination groups. Effective management will require coordination at both the individual-file and art-unit levels.
CHANG, CHARLES S is the busiest identified examiner, with 4 pending matters. The limited concentration at that examiner means the broader assignment structure remains the principal operational issue. Counsel may benefit from standardized claim review, centralized status reporting, and technical issue tracking that can be adapted to the different semiconductor, circuit, and optics examination contexts.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 27 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. 27 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 | 2 (2%) |
| §101 + other | 1 (1%) |
| §103 only | 60 (47%) |
| §102 only | 14 (11%) |
| §112 only | 1 (1%) |
| Double-patenting only | 3 (2%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 46 (36%) |
| No statute on record | 1 (1%) |
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.
