Nuclera Ltd. has 9 pending office actions in Chemistry & Materials. The workload spans 8 examiners and 8 art units, showing broad distribution across the examining structure rather than dependence on one technical assignment.
ALABI, OYELEYE A is the busiest examiner, with 2 pending matters. The concentration is limited relative to the overall docket, so portfolio management should emphasize consistent positions, coordinated disclosure, and file-specific responses across the assigned units.
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 (11%) |
| §103 only | 1 (11%) |
| §102 only | 1 (11%) |
| §112 only | 2 (22%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 4 (44%) |
