COZEN O'CONNOR - DC - Gendzwill operates in the Chemistry & Materials technology area, with 9 pending office actions currently active. This work is part of the firm's broader career history of 19375 applications. The 9 pending office actions represent the current focus for this specific set of files. The firm's experience in Chemistry & Materials is supported by their 19375 career applications.
The firm maintains a resolved allowance rate of 85.65 percent, a figure calculated from their 19375 career applications. This 85.65 percent rate serves as a benchmark for the outcomes of their patent filings. Prosecution involves an average of 3.35 office actions per allowance, a metric that describes the typical interaction with patent examiners. For practitioners, this 3.35 average is a key indicator of the effort required to reach an allowance. The 9 pending office actions are managed alongside this 85.65 percent allowance rate and 3.35 office action average. These statistics provide a clear view of the firm's historical and current performance.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 3 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. 3 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 | 4 (44%) |
| §102 only | 1 (11%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 4 (44%) |
