This profile covers Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems and shows 89 pending office actions. Its 3926 career applications indicate a substantial portfolio, with a significant active workload requiring coordinated prosecution oversight.
The resolved allowance rate is 85.5%, and the average is 3.69 office actions per allowance. The resolved record shows allowance in most matters, while the action average reflects several examination events for each allowance.
Practitioners should consider docket prioritization alongside response consistency. The allowance rate supports a favorable historical outcome assessment, but the action average indicates that matters may require sustained prosecution before reaching allowance.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 30 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. 30 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 only | 6 (6%) |
| §101 + other | 27 (29%) |
| §103 only | 18 (19%) |
| §102 only | 5 (5%) |
| §112 only | 4 (4%) |
| Double-patenting + other | 2 (2%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 30 (32%) |
| No statute on record | 1 (1%) |
