12 pending office actions • 8 art units • 9 examiners • 0 of 12 (0%) have an AI response strategy ready
Orcosa Inc. manages 12 pending office actions in the Biotechnology & Pharmaceuticals technology area. These actions are distributed among 9 distinct examiners and 8 distinct art units. This distribution shows that the company's active applications are spread across several specialized divisions of the patent office rather than a single technical niche.
LUISALBERTO GONZALEZ is the busiest examiner for Orcosa, with 3 pending office actions. While he handles 3 of the 12 total actions, the other 9 actions are split among 8 different examiners. This variety in examiners and art units suggests that Orcosa must maintain a flexible prosecution strategy to address the different standards across 8 distinct art units. With 12 pending actions and 9 examiners, the company has a high ratio of examiners to cases, which may lead to diverse prosecution outcomes across the portfolio. This decentralized profile requires the company to manage 9 separate relationships at the patent office simultaneously across 8 distinct art 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 |
|---|---|
| §103 only | 3 (25%) |
| §112 only | 1 (8%) |
| Double-patenting only | 1 (8%) |
| Double-patenting + other | 2 (17%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 5 (42%) |
