Xi’An Jiaotong University currently has 1 pending office action in the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering technology area. This single matter is being handled by 1 distinct examiner within 1 distinct art unit. The prosecution profile is extremely focused due to the limited number of active cases. DONG, LIANG is the busiest examiner for this portfolio, with 1 pending office action under review. As there is only 1 pending action in total, this examiner is responsible for the entirety of the university's current workload in this specific data set.
The involvement of only 1 distinct art unit suggests a very specific technical focus for this pending application. Practitioners managing this portfolio deal with a singular point of contact at the patent office. This allows for a highly tailored approach to the specific requirements of the examiner and the art unit involved. However, the concentration of all pending work under a single examiner and art unit means that the university's current success in this technology area depends entirely on the outcomes of these specific interactions. Practitioners should focus on the specific procedural nuances of DONG, LIANG to ensure a favorable result for this pending action. The lack of broader data across other examiners or art units means that this single case defines the university's current standing in the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering area.
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 (14%) |
| §101 + other | 3 (43%) |
| §112 only | 2 (29%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 1 (14%) |
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.
