233 pending office actions • 68 art units • 191 examiners • 0 of 233 (0%) have an AI response strategy ready • 253 patents granted in the last 365 days
State Farm Mutual Automobile Insurance Company maintains a large patent portfolio in the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems technology area. There are 232 pending office actions, indicating a very active and ongoing prosecution strategy. These actions are distributed among 190 distinct examiners, which means the company's applications are being reviewed by a broad cross-section of the USPTO's staff.
The activity is spread across 68 distinct art units. This wide distribution suggests that State Farm's innovations cover a diverse range of technical fields within transportation and e-commerce. For practitioners, managing 232 pending office actions across 68 art units requires a sophisticated approach to handle the varying technical and procedural requirements of many different USPTO divisions.
POINVIL, FRANTZY is the busiest examiner for the company, with 7 pending office actions. While this is the highest number for any single examiner, it represents only a small fraction of the 232 pending office actions in the total portfolio. The involvement of 190 distinct examiners highlights a decentralized prosecution environment where the company's overall success is not overly dependent on the decisions of a few individuals.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 72 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
Every pending office action with a known statutory deadline, placed on a days-until-due axis. Dots left of Today are overdue; the further right, the more runway. Cases that share a deadline window stack vertically. 72 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date.
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.
