Ruijie Networks Co. Ltd. currently has 6 pending office actions in the Networking & Security technology area. These actions are distributed among 6 distinct examiners, resulting in a ratio of one examiner per pending action. The portfolio is active across 5 distinct art units, which suggests some examiners are grouped within the same administrative units.
SHIU, HO T is the busiest examiner with 1 pending office action. Since every examiner in the portfolio manages exactly 1 pending action, the prosecution strategy is highly diversified across the 6 distinct examiners. This structure means the company must manage 5 distinct art unit environments to resolve its current pending matters, requiring a broad administrative approach.
For the practitioner, the lack of concentration under any single examiner means that outcomes are subject to the varied perspectives of 6 different individuals. However, the 5 distinct art units provide some level of administrative grouping that may be useful for predicting procedural trends. Success for these 6 pending office actions depends on a tailored strategy for each unique examiner and unit combination.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 1 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
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 |
