Parallel Wireless Inc. has 40 pending office actions in Networking & Security. Those matters involve 37 distinct examiners and 30 distinct art units, showing a prosecution portfolio distributed across a wide range of examination assignments. The difference between the matter count and examiner count indicates that some examiner overlap exists, but the portfolio remains broadly dispersed.
BALLOWE, CALEB JAMES is the busiest examiner, with 3 pending matters. The limited concentration in the busiest examiner suggests that a single-examiner strategy would address only a small portion of the docket. Portfolio management should therefore emphasize consistent claim positions, disclosure support, and response processes across multiple examiner and art-unit settings.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 17 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. 17 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 | 4 (11%) |
| §101 + other | 2 (5%) |
| §103 only | 20 (53%) |
| §102 only | 2 (5%) |
| §112 only | 1 (3%) |
| Double-patenting only | 1 (3%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 7 (18%) |
| No statute on record | 1 (3%) |
