CR MILES, P.C. operates in the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering technology area, with 1334 career applications. The firm currently manages 24 pending office actions, reflecting their active role in the patent process. This career total of 1334 applications establishes their experience in Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering. The 24 pending office actions are a current measure of their prosecution work.
The firm maintains a resolved allowance rate of 89.1 percent, a metric calculated from their 1334 career applications. This 89.1 percent rate indicates the firm's success in achieving patent grants. Prosecution requires an average of 3.18 office actions per allowance. For practitioners, this 3.18 average provides a clear expectation for the number of examiner interactions. The 24 pending office actions are managed alongside this 89.1 percent allowance rate and 3.18 office action average. These figures collectively describe the firm's historical performance and current engagement in their primary technology area.
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 + other | 3 (11%) |
| §103 only | 4 (14%) |
| §102 only | 1 (4%) |
| §112 only | 2 (7%) |
| Double-patenting only | 1 (4%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 17 (61%) |
