Yext Inc. has 5 pending office actions in Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems. The matters involve 5 distinct examiners and 5 distinct art units, so the prosecution workload is fully distributed across the supplied assignments.
JARRETT, SCOTT L is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. No examiner has a larger assignment in the data, making matter-specific preparation and consistent internal claim terminology important for docket control.
The five art-unit placements call for separate technical review. Counsel can reuse supported explanations where appropriate, but each response should be anchored to its own examiner’s objections and record.
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.
