Telefonaktiebolaget LM Ericsson has 895 pending office actions in Networking & Security. The portfolio reaches 603 distinct examiners and 176 distinct art units, demonstrating extensive distribution across examination personnel and technical classifications. The scale and breadth favor structured docket analytics, coordinated claim strategy, and clear ownership of examiner and art-unit relationships.
OLALEYE, OLADIRAN GIDEON is the busiest examiner, with 7 pending matters. That is a defined cluster for targeted review, but the portfolio remains widely dispersed beyond that assignment. Counsel should use the examiner concentration to identify immediate coordination opportunities while managing the larger docket through art-unit segmentation and consistent issue coding.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 244 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. 244 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 only | 10 (1%) |
| §101 + other | 90 (10%) |
| §103 only | 380 (43%) |
| §102 only | 74 (8%) |
| §112 only | 16 (2%) |
| Double-patenting only | 18 (2%) |
| Double-patenting + other | 6 (1%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 277 (31%) |
| No statute on record | 11 (1%) |
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.
