Uti Limited Partnership has 11 pending office actions in Biotechnology & Pharmaceuticals. The matters span 10 distinct examiners and 10 distinct art units, indicating a widely distributed prosecution docket with only limited overlap among examiner and art-unit assignments. This structure calls for disciplined matter tracking, deadline control, and response preparation tailored to individual examination settings.
DIBRINO, MARIANNE is the busiest examiner, with 2 pending actions. That assignment is the only identified examiner concentration above a single matter in the supplied data. The two matters before that examiner may support coordinated review, while the remaining docket requires separately managed prosecution strategies.
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 | 2 (18%) |
| §103 only | 2 (18%) |
| §112 only | 1 (9%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 6 (55%) |
