IPRTOP LLC operates in Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics and has 880 career applications recorded. Its resolved allowance rate is 86.62%, indicating allowance in a substantial share of resolved matters.
The profile lists 42 pending office actions, reflecting continuing examination activity. The average of 1.78 office actions per allowance suggests that allowed matters generally required fewer than two responses. Practitioners can weigh the firm’s active workload and application base against a resolved outcome that is favorable but not universal.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 12 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. 12 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 | 2 (5%) |
| §101 + other | 3 (8%) |
| §103 only | 14 (35%) |
| §102 only | 3 (8%) |
| §112 only | 5 (12%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 13 (32%) |
