May Patents Ltd. has 13 pending office actions in Communications. The matters are distributed among 8 distinct examiners and 7 distinct art units, indicating repeated assignments within both categories.
ALAM, MIRZA F is the busiest examiner, with 5 pending actions. That examiner is a clear coordination point for response consistency and issue tracking. The remaining examiner and art-unit assignments should be reviewed separately, since the portfolio includes several distinct prosecution contexts.
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 | 1 (8%) |
| §103 only | 4 (31%) |
| Double-patenting only | 2 (15%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 4 (31%) |
| No statute on record | 2 (15%) |
