NuCurrent Inc. manages a company patent portfolio in the Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics technology area. The portfolio currently has 4 pending office actions. These actions are handled by 4 distinct examiners across 3 distinct art units. This distribution suggests that while each application has a unique examiner, there is some technical overlap within the patent office departments.
The busiest examiner for NuCurrent Inc. is IMMANUEL, BAMIDELE ADEFOLARIN, who is handling 1 busiest examiner pending office action. With 4 pending office actions and 4 distinct examiners, no single examiner dominates the workload. However, the use of only 3 distinct art units for 4 actions implies that at least two applications are being processed within the same technical unit. For a practitioner, this means they must navigate the individual preferences of four different people, but they may find some consistency in the broader art unit policies for a portion of the portfolio. This requires a balanced strategy that accounts for both individual examiner styles and shared art unit standards in semiconductors and circuits.
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 |
|---|---|
| §103 only | 2 (50%) |
| Double-patenting only | 2 (50%) |
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.
