Technology area: Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems
7 pending office actions • 4 art units • 5 examiners • 0 of 7 (0%) have an AI response strategy ready
Iris Tv Inc. currently manages 6 pending office actions within the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems technology area. These active matters are distributed across 4 distinct examiners and 3 distinct art units. This distribution indicates that the company's pending applications are spread across multiple technical subgroups within its primary technology area, requiring a strategy that addresses the specific nuances of 3 distinct art units.
The busiest examiner for the portfolio is ALVAREZ, RAQUEL, who is responsible for 2 pending office actions. The other 4 distinct examiners share the remaining workload for the entity. With 6 pending office actions in total, the concentration of 2 actions with ALVAREZ, RAQUEL represents a significant portion of the current workload. This means that 2 pending office actions are under the review of a single individual, while the rest are distributed among the other examiners.
Practitioners should monitor the 3 distinct art units to identify any variations in examination trends across the portfolio. The presence of 4 distinct examiners for 6 pending office actions suggests a moderate level of examiner diversity. Because ALVAREZ, RAQUEL handles 2 pending office actions, her specific examination style will have a greater impact on the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems portfolio than any other single examiner currently assigned to the 6 pending office actions.
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.
