Cepeda Patent Law, LLC. has 9 pending office actions in Biotechnology & Pharmaceuticals and 34 career applications. The pending docket is accompanied by a limited application record, so the available figures describe a focused practice profile rather than a broad historical portfolio.
The resolved allowance rate is 26.67%, and the average is 6.0 office actions per allowance. These measures indicate that resolved outcomes in the record involve substantial examination activity and that allowance has occurred in a minority of resolved matters. Practitioners should examine claim histories and prosecution objectives closely when assessing fit for a biotechnology or pharmaceutical matter.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 1 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.
| Bucket | Cases |
|---|---|
| §103 only | 3 (33%) |
| Double-patenting + other | 2 (22%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 4 (44%) |
