Janux Therapeutics Inc. manages 6 pending office actions within the Biotechnology & Pharmaceuticals technology area. These actions are distributed across 5 distinct art units and involve 6 distinct examiners. SAOUD, CHRISTINE J is the busiest examiner for the company, currently handling 1 pending office action. The distribution of these matters among 6 distinct examiners shows that every active action is assigned to a different individual.
The 5 distinct art units suggest a relatively broad technical range within the company's biotechnology portfolio. SAOUD, CHRISTINE J is responsible for 1 pending office action, which is a single component of the company's total pending workload. This 6 to 6 ratio of pending office actions to distinct examiners indicates that no single examiner has a dominant influence over the current portfolio. Practitioners can expect to interact with 5 distinct art units, reflecting the varied technical classifications of the matters currently under review.
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 | 2 (33%) |
| §112 only | 1 (17%) |
| Double-patenting only | 1 (17%) |
| Double-patenting + other | 1 (17%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 1 (17%) |
