Intellectual Discovery Co., Ltd. has 8 pending office actions in Networking & Security. The matters involve 7 distinct examiners across 6 distinct art units, indicating limited repetition within a relatively distributed workload. Counsel can use the repeated assignments to compare examination treatment while retaining matter-specific response strategies.
HAQUE, MD NAZMUL is the busiest examiner, with 2 pending actions. Those matters may justify coordinated review of shared technical or claim issues. The remaining distribution means that portfolio planning should still include separate examiner and art-unit assessments.
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 | 5 (71%) |
| §102 only | 1 (14%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 1 (14%) |
