Veeva Systems Inc. has 6 pending office actions in Computing & Software. The matters are spread across 6 examiners and 6 art units, so each pending matter has a distinct examiner and technical-unit assignment.
PHILLIPS, III, ALBERT M is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. The record offers no larger examiner concentration, making individual application review and art-unit-specific preparation the practical priorities.
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 only | 1 (20%) |
| §101 + other | 1 (20%) |
| §102 only | 1 (20%) |
| Double-patenting only | 1 (20%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 1 (20%) |
