Stichting Imec Nederland has 16 pending office actions in Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering. The docket spans 15 distinct examiners and 10 distinct art units, showing extensive examiner dispersion alongside repeated activity within some technical units.
MORONESO, JONATHAN DREW is the busiest examiner, with 2 pending matters. That examiner forms a small cluster within a much broader docket. Counsel should combine centralized tracking of recurring issues with examiner-specific preparation and art-unit review for the remaining matters.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 4 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. 4 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.
| Bucket | Cases |
|---|---|
| §101 + other | 3 (20%) |
| §103 only | 3 (20%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 9 (60%) |
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.
