Jeisys Medical Inc. maintains a portfolio with 9 pending office actions in the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering technology area. These actions are assigned to 8 distinct examiners, showing a high degree of distribution for a portfolio of this size. The workload is spread across 3 distinct art units, indicating a relatively narrow technical focus.
The busiest examiner, SMITH, KAITLYN ELIZABETH, is handling 2 busiest examiner pending actions. These 2 actions are part of the 9 total pending office actions for the company. With 8 distinct examiners involved, the 9 pending office actions are almost entirely unique to each examiner, with only a small amount of overlap.
Practitioners should note that the 3 distinct art units suggest the 9 pending office actions are concentrated within specific areas of the patent office. However, the 8 distinct examiners mean that the company must engage with many different individuals. The 2 busiest examiner pending actions for SMITH, KAITLYN ELIZABETH represent the only instance of an examiner handling more than one action for this portfolio.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 3 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. 3 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 (20%) |
| §112 only | 3 (30%) |
| Double-patenting + other | 1 (10%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 4 (40%) |
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.
