Eversheds Sutherland GE focuses on Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics and records 11044 career applications. Its profile includes 9 pending office actions, showing active work in this technology area within a broad application history.
The resolved allowance rate is 90.47%, and the average office actions per allowance is 3.62. The reported rate indicates favorable resolved outcomes, while the action average shows that allowance commonly follows repeated examination interaction.
For applicants, the profile supports evaluating technical prosecution experience together with workload and outcome measures. Semiconductor, circuit, and optics claims may require precise treatment of architecture and component relationships. The available data supports planning for continued prosecution effort but does not explain individual case results.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 2 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 |
|---|---|
| §101 + other | 2 (22%) |
| §103 only | 3 (33%) |
| §102 only | 1 (11%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 3 (33%) |
