CURATOLO SIDOTI & TRILLIS CO., LPA handles Chemistry & Materials matters. Its profile includes 48 pending office actions and 1498 career applications, showing an active docket supported by a substantial historical application record. The workload calls for consistent deadline management and prioritization of matters with complex technical or claim issues.
The resolved allowance rate is 85.41%, with an average of 4.07 office actions per allowance. Resolved matters frequently reach allowance, but the average indicates that they may require several examination exchanges before resolution. Practitioners should use the aggregate results to plan prosecution resources while evaluating each chemical matter on its disclosure, claim scope, and cited references.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 21 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. 21 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 | 6 (12%) |
| §103 only | 13 (27%) |
| §102 only | 2 (4%) |
| §112 only | 2 (4%) |
| Double-patenting only | 1 (2%) |
| Double-patenting + other | 2 (4%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 23 (47%) |
How the docket's pending cases split across USPTO tech-center bands.
Manual office-action response work runs about 10 hours per case. The time-saved bands below show what IP Author's prosecution pipeline typically delivers — a conservative 20% on the low end, 35% in the middle, 50% on the high end.
