Newsouth Innovations Pty Limited has 12 pending office actions in Chemistry & Materials. The matters involve 12 distinct examiners and 11 distinct art units, indicating nearly complete distribution across the active docket.
SARMA, ABHISHEK is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. Because no examiner handles multiple matters in the available data, counsel should emphasize consistent portfolio positions while tailoring responses to each examination setting.
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 (9%) |
| §103 only | 2 (18%) |
| §102 only | 1 (9%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 7 (64%) |
