JGC Corporation is currently managing 9 pending office actions in the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems technology area. These 9 actions are distributed among 9 distinct examiners, showing that no multiple pending matters are being reviewed by the same person. This degree of examiner variety is accompanied by a presence in 7 distinct art units, which indicates that the company's patent applications cover a wide array of technical subjects within the mechanical and systems fields.
ARLYN I RIVERA-CORDERO is the busiest examiner for the portfolio, responsible for 1 busiest examiner pending action. Because the 9 pending office actions are spread across 9 distinct examiners, the prosecution workload is decentralized. The 7 distinct art units involved suggest that JGC Corporation is navigating an environment with many different examination standards. This data reflects an approach to intellectual property where a variety of transportation and mechanical innovations are being pursued simultaneously across multiple USPTO divisions.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 1 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
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 | 3 (33%) |
| §103 only | 2 (22%) |
| §112 only | 1 (11%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 3 (33%) |
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.
