Ewing & Jones, PLLC works in Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering and records 1239 career applications. Its profile includes 8 pending office actions, showing current prosecution activity within a substantial application history.
The resolved allowance rate is 89.07%, and the average office actions per allowance is 3.46. The allowance measure indicates favorable resolved outcomes, while the action average shows that repeated examination work is commonly part of the path to allowance.
For medical-device and mechanical-engineering applicants, the profile supports planning around structural claim detail and continued response activity. The application total provides context for experience, while the outcome and action measures offer distinct perspectives on prosecution results and effort.
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 | 1 (14%) |
| §103 only | 1 (14%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 4 (57%) |
| No statute on record | 1 (14%) |
