Scaled Cognition Inc. is currently navigating 4 pending office actions within the Communications technology area. These actions are distributed among 4 distinct examiners, ensuring that no single examiner oversees more than a single active matter. This ratio between actions and examiners requires a broad range of responses to accommodate different examiner perspectives within the same technology sector. The company must manage these distinct examiners to maintain a cohesive intellectual property strategy.
The active cases are situated within 2 distinct art units, indicating that while the examiners differ, the technical classifications are relatively concentrated. TRACY JR., EDWARD is the busiest examiner with 1 pending office action. With distinct examiners managing the pending office actions, the prosecution workload is highly fragmented, which may lead to varying timelines for resolution across the portfolio. The concentration in 2 distinct art units may offer some predictability in terms of the prior art and legal standards applied to the matters.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 2 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.
