UNIVERSITAT ROVIRA I VIRGILI currently manages 3 pending office actions within the Chemistry & Materials technology area. These 3 pending office actions are distributed among 3 distinct examiners, which indicates that each matter is being reviewed independently by a different person. This one-to-one relationship between actions and examiners ensures a variety of perspectives on the company's technical disclosures.
The portfolio is also spread across 3 distinct art units, matching the number of distinct examiners and pending office actions. This alignment suggests that each of the 3 pending office actions is being treated as a distinct technical sub-specialty within Chemistry & Materials. The busiest examiner is ROTONDI, CONNOR JON, who is responsible for 1 pending office action. With the busiest examiner pending count at 1, the workload is perfectly balanced across the 3 distinct examiners and 3 distinct art units, requiring a broad but thin prosecution strategy.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 2 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 |
|---|---|
| §103 only | 2 (67%) |
| §112 only | 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.
