WISTRON NEWEB Corporation operates a company patent portfolio in the Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics technology area. There are 30 pending office actions currently active. These actions are distributed among 28 distinct examiners and 16 distinct art units. LEE, WILSON is the busiest examiner, responsible for 2 pending actions. The presence of 30 pending office actions suggests a significant volume of ongoing prosecution within the semiconductor sector.
The 30 pending office actions are spread across 16 distinct art units, indicating a wide technical range. With 28 distinct examiners involved, the company must manage a high volume of individual examiner interactions. The fact that 16 distinct art units are involved for the pending office actions suggests that the company's technology is being reviewed by many different specialized groups. Practitioners should monitor the 2 pending actions with the busiest examiner while coordinating across the 28 distinct examiners. This decentralized structure requires a highly adaptable prosecution strategy to address the diverse requirements of the identified technical groups.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 12 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. 12 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 |
|---|---|
| §103 only | 10 (33%) |
| §102 only | 8 (27%) |
| §112 only | 1 (3%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 11 (37%) |
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.
