The resolved allowance rate is 55.47%, while applications reaching allowance have averaged 1.89 office actions. The figures show that resolved matters have often reached allowance with limited examination activity, but the allowance rate makes careful evaluation of claim strategy and matter selection important.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 2 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.
