Korea Electronics Technology Institute has 42 pending office actions in Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics. The matters involve 42 distinct examiners and 41 distinct art units, an unusually broad distribution within the recorded portfolio. The near one-to-one relationship between matters and examination assignments limits the value of an examiner-centered prosecution strategy.
PATEL, NEHA is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. Counsel should instead emphasize standardized internal review, consistent claim terminology, and systematic tracking of art-unit treatment. A central database of cited references and amendments may help identify recurring issues despite the highly dispersed assignments.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 7 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. 7 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 |
|---|---|
| §101 + other | 8 (20%) |
| §103 only | 15 (37%) |
| §112 only | 3 (7%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 14 (34%) |
| No statute on record | 1 (2%) |
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.
