LX Semicon Co., Ltd. has 30 pending office actions in Communications. The matters involve 23 distinct examiners across 18 distinct art units, showing meaningful dispersion among examination teams and technical classifications.
ANYIKIRE, CHIKAODILI E is the busiest examiner, with 4 pending matters. That assignment is limited relative to the portfolio total, so counsel should combine examiner-specific preparation with centralized monitoring of art-unit developments and response consistency.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 9 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. 9 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 | 1 (3%) |
| §103 only | 11 (37%) |
| §102 only | 6 (20%) |
| §112 only | 1 (3%) |
| Double-patenting only | 3 (10%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 8 (27%) |
