UNIVERSIDAD DE LOS ANDES currently has 3 pending office actions within the Chemistry & Materials technology area. These actions are distributed among 3 distinct examiners, meaning each pending application is being reviewed by a different individual. The portfolio is spread across 3 distinct art units, which indicates that the university's innovations in Chemistry & Materials are diverse enough to fall under multiple patent office classifications. This distribution across 3 art units suggests that a multifaceted prosecution strategy is necessary to address the various technical standards of each unit.
MILLER, CAMERON KENNETH is identified as the busiest examiner for this portfolio, responsible for 1 of the pending office actions. With 3 pending office actions in total, the workload is evenly split among the 3 distinct examiners. The fact that each examiner is working within a different art unit means the university faces a variety of technical hurdles and examiner styles. The company must adapt to the individual preferences of MILLER, CAMERON KENNETH and the other two examiners. Successfully prosecuting these 3 pending office actions will require a deep understanding of the specific standards within each of the 3 distinct art units involved.
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 | 1 (33%) |
| §112 only | 1 (33%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 1 (33%) |
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.
