Multiverse Computing S L has 11 pending office actions in Computing & Software. The matters involve 11 examiners and 10 art units, showing a broad examination footprint across the portfolio. The distribution of actions across nearly as many examiners as matters means prosecution knowledge cannot be limited to one examiner relationship.
HICKS, AUSTIN JAMES is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. Counsel should maintain a unified claim and specification strategy while tracking differences among the art units. Examiner-specific preparation will be important because the profile does not show concentration with a single examiner.
The spread across 10 art units also supports matter-level docket review, particularly for identifying recurring claim language or technical positions. Portfolio coordination can help avoid inconsistent amendments while preserving arguments suited to each examination track.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 1 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
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 | 2 (20%) |
| §101 + other | 3 (30%) |
| §103 only | 2 (20%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 2 (20%) |
| No statute on record | 1 (10%) |
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.
