The Medical College of Wisconsin Inc. has 22 pending office actions in Biotechnology & Pharmaceuticals. Those matters involve 21 examiners and 18 art units, showing a prosecution docket distributed across numerous examination assignments.
HANEY, AMANDA MARIE is the busiest identified examiner, with 2 pending matters. The limited concentration at that examiner suggests that most prosecution planning will need to account for varied examiner practices and art-unit contexts.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 9 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. 9 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 | 3 (14%) |
| §101 + other | 4 (18%) |
| §103 only | 4 (18%) |
| §102 only | 2 (9%) |
| §112 only | 3 (14%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 6 (27%) |
