14 pending office actions • 8 art units • 13 examiners • 0 of 14 (0%) have an AI response strategy ready • 22 patents granted in the last 365 days
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 only | 1 (7%) |
| §101 + other | 2 (14%) |
| §103 only | 3 (21%) |
| §102 only | 1 (7%) |
| Double-patenting + other | 1 (7%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 6 (43%) |
