TCL Technology Group Corporation has 15 pending office actions in Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics. The portfolio includes 12 distinct examiners and 8 distinct art units, indicating repeated assignments across both dimensions. This structure creates opportunities to identify recurring unit-level issues, but it also requires careful separation of examiner-specific positions and application-specific disclosures.
EDMONDSON, LYNNE RENEE is the busiest examiner, with 3 pending matters. That recurring assignment is a practical focus for consistency review across amendments, interviews, and prior-art arguments. The remaining matters require coordinated management across the other examiner and art-unit relationships.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 7 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. 7 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 | 9 (43%) |
| §102 only | 2 (10%) |
| Double-patenting only | 1 (5%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 8 (38%) |
| No statute on record | 1 (5%) |
