Banner Witcoff (Intel) focuses on Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics. The firm's overall metrics include 56298 career applications and a resolved allowance rate pct of 92.04. For this specific relationship, there are 17 pending office actions. The 92.04 percent allowance rate provides a baseline for the likelihood of success for its client base. Practitioners can use this percentage to evaluate the firm's historical performance across its career filings.
The average of 2.26 office actions per allowance remains consistent with the firm's general prosecution profile. This 2.26 average helps in setting expectations for the number of interactions required to reach a final decision. With 56298 applications in its history, the firm has established a clear performance record. The 17 pending actions represent the current active workload for this specific account. This data provides a clear view of the prosecution landscape for Intel within the firm's semiconductor practice.
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 | 1 (4%) |
| §101 + other | 4 (17%) |
| §103 only | 8 (35%) |
| §102 only | 1 (4%) |
| §112 only | 1 (4%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 8 (35%) |
