Yokowo Co., Ltd. has 17 pending office actions in Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics. The matters involve 11 distinct examiners across 6 distinct art units, combining substantial examiner dispersion with repeated assignments in some examination groups.
HO, ANH N is the busiest examiner, with 4 pending matters. That concentration supports coordinated review of responses before filing, while the broader examiner and art-unit distribution requires disciplined portfolio-wide tracking.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 5 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. 5 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 | 3 (17%) |
| §102 only | 1 (6%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 14 (78%) |
