Systems Protection Group US, LLC has 9 pending office actions in the Chemistry & Materials technology area. These actions are spread across 7 distinct art units, indicating a range of chemical and material innovations. The prosecution involves 8 distinct examiners, with most examiners handling only one matter.
The busiest examiner, JOHNSON, JENNA LEIGH, is responsible for 2 pending actions. This individual manages a larger portion of the 9 pending actions compared to the other 8 distinct examiners. The ratio of 7 distinct art units for the pending actions suggests that nearly every case falls into a different technical sub-category.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 3 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. 3 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 |
|---|---|
| §103 only | 3 (33%) |
| Double-patenting + other | 1 (11%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 5 (56%) |
