The allowance rate describes resolved results, while the average office-action figure indicates the response volume associated with allowances. Together, these measures can inform expectations for claim-development effort, although the pending docket remains a separate current-workload measure.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 1 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.
