Socpra Sciences Et Genie S E C has 7 pending office actions within the Chemistry & Materials technology area. The portfolio shows a high degree of examiner diversity, with 7 distinct examiners each handling 1 of the pending matters. This one-to-one ratio between actions and examiners ensures that no single individual is managing multiple applications for the company.
These 7 actions are spread across 6 distinct art units, indicating that the company's chemical and materials research covers several specialized technical classifications. The busiest examiner, KUNEMUND, ROBERT M, is currently managing 1 pending office action, which is consistent with the distribution across the rest of the portfolio. This indicates that the workload is perfectly distributed among the assigned examiners.
The presence of 6 art units suggests that prosecution strategies may need to be tailored to the specific practices of multiple technical groups. Because each of the 7 pending actions is with a different examiner, there is no central examiner bottleneck, requiring practitioners to manage 7 separate relationships at the patent office.
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 | 1 (14%) |
| §102 only | 1 (14%) |
| §112 only | 1 (14%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 4 (57%) |
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.
