ThinkAnalytics Ltd. is currently managing 2 pending office actions within the Computing & Software technology area. These 2 pending office actions are distributed across distinct art units, indicating that the company's software innovations are being reviewed by different specialized groups. The involvement of distinct examiners means that each case is being handled by a different individual, which may lead to different prosecution timelines.
MAY, ROBERT F is the busiest examiner for the portfolio, currently overseeing 1 pending office action. Since he only handles 1 of the pending office actions, the company's risk is split between the examiners. This lack of concentration means that the company must maintain separate prosecution strategies for its Computing & Software filings. Practitioners should be aware that the art units and examiners may have different interpretations of the prior art. Success in a case does not necessarily guarantee a similar result in the other, given the different individuals involved.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 1 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
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.
