Kyung Hee University Industry Cooperation Group has 17 pending office actions in Networking & Security. The matters are assigned to 17 distinct examiners and 17 distinct art units, showing that each pending matter currently occupies a separate examiner and art-unit path.
MERCEDES, DISMERY E is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. No examiner-specific concentration appears in the supplied profile, so counsel may gain more from coordinated portfolio procedures and individual matter review than from a single examiner strategy.
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 |
|---|---|
| §101 + other | 4 (22%) |
| §103 only | 4 (22%) |
| §112 only | 1 (6%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 9 (50%) |
How the docket's pending cases split across USPTO tech-center bands.
