Aurora Consulting LLC works in Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering, with 23 pending office actions and 684 career applications. The pending docket is meaningful but remains part of a broader recorded prosecution portfolio, providing context for the firm’s current examination workload.
The resolved allowance rate is 89.02%, and the average is 2.85 office actions per allowance. Resolved applications have therefore often reached allowance after multiple examination exchanges. For practitioners, the profile supports planning that accounts for both a generally favorable allowance outcome and the recurring need to address office actions in device and mechanical cases.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 4 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. 4 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 | 1 (4%) |
| §101 + other | 5 (22%) |
| §103 only | 5 (22%) |
| Double-patenting + other | 1 (4%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 11 (48%) |
