UNIVERSITAT DE BARCELONA has 5 pending office actions in Biotechnology & Pharmaceuticals. Each matter is assigned to a distinct examiner and art unit, while JOHNSON, JUSTIN ALAN is the busiest examiner with 1 pending action.
The active docket is dispersed across examination channels. Central oversight can preserve consistency in scientific terminology and claim strategy, but examiner-specific precedent will have limited application across the profile.
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.
| Bucket | Cases |
|---|---|
| §101 + other | 1 (20%) |
| §103 only | 1 (20%) |
| §112 only | 2 (40%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 1 (20%) |
