Rohr Inc. has 15 pending office actions in Chemistry & Materials. The matters span 14 examiners and 11 art units, showing broad distribution with limited examiner overlap. The portfolio therefore calls for coordinated administration without assuming that one examiner’s approach will govern the other matters.
WRIGHT, ALEXANDER SCOTT is the busiest examiner, with 2 pending actions. Those matters may support comparison of recurring objections, while the remaining actions should be organized by their separate examiner and art-unit assignments. Technical grouping can help maintain coherent claim positions across the chemistry and materials portfolio.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 7 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. 7 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 | 6 (46%) |
| Double-patenting + other | 1 (8%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 6 (46%) |
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.
