Therabody Inc. has 9 pending office actions in Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering. The matters involve 8 distinct examiners and 5 distinct art units, showing broader examiner coverage than technical-unit coverage. Multiple matters therefore share some art-unit contexts.
MILLER, CHRISTOPHER E is the busiest examiner, with 2 pending matters. That assignment provides a limited opportunity for examiner-specific coordination, while the remaining work calls for separate matter review supported by art-unit issue tracking.
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 |
|---|---|
| §101 + other | 1 (11%) |
| §103 only | 2 (22%) |
| Double-patenting + other | 4 (44%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 2 (22%) |
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.
