This profile has 40 pending office actions in Chemistry & Materials. Its broader record covers 1350 career applications, with a resolved allowance rate of 93.31% and an average of 2.51 office actions per allowance.
The docket reflects active prosecution in a chemistry and materials practice. The allowance rate describes resolved outcomes, while the office-action average provides a measure of examination activity associated with allowed matters.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 15 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. 15 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 |
|---|---|
| §103 only | 16 (40%) |
| §102 only | 1 (2%) |
| Double-patenting + other | 2 (5%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 21 (52%) |
