109 pending office actions • 39 art units • 99 examiners • 0 of 109 (0%) have an AI response strategy ready • 166 patents granted in the last 365 days

Analysis

Ofinno LLC manages 109 pending office actions within the Networking & Security technology area. These actions are distributed across 99 distinct examiners and 39 distinct art units. BEDNASH, JOSEPH A is the busiest examiner, currently handling 3 busiest examiner pending actions. The 39 distinct art units indicate a broad technical footprint within the networking sector.

With 99 distinct examiners for the 109 pending office actions, the workload is highly decentralized. This distribution requires the company to navigate a wide variety of examiner interpretations. The 3 busiest examiner pending actions assigned to BEDNASH, JOSEPH A represent a small portion of the 109 pending office actions. Practitioners should coordinate across the 99 distinct examiners to ensure consistent prosecution outcomes.

The 39 distinct art units suggest that the portfolio touches on many specialized groups within the USPTO. Managing 109 pending office actions across these units requires an understanding of the specific technical standards applied by each group. Because the 99 distinct examiners are spread across 39 distinct art units, there is significant variety in the technical scrutiny applied to the applications. This structure requires a strategy that accounts for both individual examiner preferences and art unit trends.
