Klintworth & Rozenblat IDC focuses its practice on the Networking & Security technology area, drawing on a history of 3458 career applications. The firm achieves a resolved allowance rate of 88.54 percent, which measures the frequency with which its applications result in a patent grant. This total of 3458 career applications establishes the firm's historical presence in the patent system.
The firm's prosecution process involves an average of 3.66 office actions per allowance. This metric represents the typical number of communications with patent examiners required to reach an allowance for a given application. Currently, the firm is managing 18 pending office actions, which represents the current volume of its active prosecution docket in the Networking & Security sector. These 18 pending office actions are fewer than the 3458 career applications filed by the firm.
The 88.54 percent allowance rate and the 3.66 office actions per allowance provide a data-grounded basis for evaluating the firm's prosecution performance. The 18 pending office actions show the firm's immediate focus, while the 3458 career applications document its involvement in the field over time. These figures offer a view of the firm's activity and results in Networking & Security.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 4 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. 4 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 |
|---|---|
| §103 only | 11 (48%) |
| §102 only | 2 (9%) |
| Double-patenting only | 2 (9%) |
| Double-patenting + other | 1 (4%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 7 (30%) |
