Ascent Intellectual Property Law has 19 pending office actions in Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems and 306 career applications. The resolved allowance rate is 87.5%, and the average is 4.27 office actions per allowance. These figures show an active docket supported by a historical application record in which resolved matters often require repeated examination before allowance.
The profile can inform workload and budgeting discussions, but its measures answer different questions. Pending actions describe current activity, applications provide portfolio context, the allowance rate describes resolved outcomes, and the action average reflects prosecution effort among allowed matters. None of these figures identifies the source of individual disputes. Practitioners should review claim language and office-action history before applying the portfolio-level result to a transportation, e-commerce, or mechanical application.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 10 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. 10 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 |
|---|---|
| §101 only | 2 (11%) |
| §101 + other | 1 (5%) |
| §103 only | 11 (58%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 5 (26%) |
