Sensata Technologies Inc. has 8 pending office actions concentrated in the Communications technology area. These actions are spread across 7 distinct examiners and 5 distinct art units, suggesting a distribution of its intellectual property matters within the patent office. The presence of 5 distinct art units indicates that the company's Communications filings are being evaluated by several different specialized groups, which may lead to varying examination timelines and outcomes.
ALAM, MIRZA F is the busiest examiner for this portfolio, currently overseeing 2 pending office actions. The remaining pending actions are distributed among the other distinct examiners, as the portfolio involves 8 pending office actions and 7 distinct examiners. This distribution shows that most examiners are only handling a single matter for the company, while ALAM, MIRZA F manages a larger share. For the practitioner, this means that while most of the portfolio is widely dispersed, a concentration exists under a single examiner's review.
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 |
|---|---|
| §101 + other | 1 (11%) |
| §103 only | 3 (33%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 5 (56%) |
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.
