Moxa Inc. currently has 8 pending office actions within the Networking & Security technology area. These 8 actions are distributed among 8 distinct examiners, meaning each pending matter is handled by a different individual. SHIU, HO T is the busiest examiner, managing 1 pending action.
The prosecution activity is spread across 8 distinct art units. This creates a scenario where the count of pending office actions, examiners, and art units are all equal. Such a distribution indicates that the portfolio's networking and security innovations are highly diverse, touching on many different technical subgroups without any concentration in a single area.
Managing 8 pending office actions across 8 distinct art units requires a highly individualized approach for each case. Because the busiest examiner, SHIU, HO T, only has 1 pending action, there is no centralized examiner to focus on. Practitioners must be prepared to navigate 8 different sets of art unit standards and 8 different examiner styles simultaneously.
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 |
|---|---|
| §101 only | 1 (11%) |
| §103 only | 6 (67%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 2 (22%) |
