The resolved allowance rate is 88.46%, and the average is 1.91 office actions per allowance. The first measure addresses outcomes among resolved applications, while the second describes the office-action cycles associated with allowed matters. For communications work, a client should use these indicators with a review of claim scope, technology fit, and the specific issues raised in the pending actions.
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.
