Korea Institute Of Ceramic Engineering And Technology has 7 pending office actions in Chemistry & Materials. The matters are distributed across 7 distinct examiners and 7 distinct art units, indicating a fully dispersed examination structure within the same technical area.
LI, WENHAN is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. No examiner has a larger pending assignment in the supplied data, so docket management should treat each record as a separate prosecution workstream rather than relying on a dominant examiner relationship.
The broad distribution increases the importance of consistent technical terminology, coordinated disclosure positions, and matter-level deadline control. Counsel should compare the substance of the actions for recurring chemistry or materials issues, while preserving arguments tailored to each art-unit assignment.
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 | 3 (43%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 4 (57%) |
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.
