Shanghai Institute Of Ceramics Chinese Academy Of Sciences has 4 pending office actions in Chemistry & Materials. The matters involve 4 distinct examiners across 4 distinct art units, indicating a fully distributed examination profile.
WIESE, NOAH S is the busiest examiner with 1 pending matter. Counsel should manage each matter independently while maintaining consistent treatment of ceramic compositions, processing details, and technical terminology where the applications overlap.
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 (25%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 3 (75%) |
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.
