Saturn Licensing LLC has 11 pending office actions in Networking & Security. The matters are assigned to 11 distinct examiners across 9 distinct art units, showing broad examiner distribution with some art-unit repetition. Counsel should maintain centralized tracking and use art-unit comparisons to identify recurring issues, while keeping responses tailored to each record.
SALCE, JASON P is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending action. The limited concentration does not indicate a portfolio-wide examiner strategy. Matter-level analysis of claim scope, cited art, and procedural posture should guide prosecution decisions.
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 |
|---|---|
| §103 only | 5 (42%) |
| Double-patenting only | 2 (17%) |
| Double-patenting + other | 1 (8%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 4 (33%) |
