George Morgan (Way-Insight) has 23 pending office actions in Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering and 3466 career applications. The resolved allowance rate is 99.34%, showing that nearly all measured resolved matters reached allowance. The average of 1.13 office actions per allowance indicates relatively limited examination activity for an allowed matter within this record.
For practitioners, the combination of high resolved allowance performance and low action frequency provides a useful benchmark for response efficiency, while the pending docket still requires matter-specific review. Medical-device prosecution may turn on precise relationships among structural elements, operation, and clinical or functional results. The historical figures should inform docket planning and claim strategy without replacing analysis of the art, written description, and posture of each pending case.
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 |
|---|---|
| §101 + other | 3 (14%) |
| §103 only | 6 (27%) |
| §112 only | 2 (9%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 11 (50%) |
