LARKIN, DANIEL SEAN is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. No examiner has more than that identified workload, so portfolio coordination should account for multiple independent prosecution paths.
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.
