Ruckus IP Holdings LLC has 19 pending office actions in the Networking & Security technology area. These 19 actions are distributed among 19 distinct examiners, meaning each case has a different reviewer. Furthermore, these cases are spread across 19 distinct art units, which is a high level of fragmentation for a portfolio of this size. This suggests that the technical subject matter is highly diverse within the networking field, as each of the 19 pending office actions has triggered a different art unit assignment.
CRAVER, CHARLES R is the busiest examiner with 1 pending office action. Because there are 19 distinct examiners for 19 pending office actions, there is no overlap in personnel. The 19 distinct art units indicate that every pending matter is being evaluated by a different specialized group, requiring a highly individualized approach to each application. Practitioners must manage 19 separate examiner relationships, as the lack of concentration among the 19 distinct examiners and 19 distinct art units prevents any economy of scale in the prosecution of these 19 pending office actions.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 3 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. 3 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 + other | 2 (11%) |
| §103 only | 9 (47%) |
| §102 only | 1 (5%) |
| Double-patenting only | 1 (5%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 6 (32%) |
