LARKIN HOFFMAN DALY & LINDGREN, LTD. focuses on Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering and has 1,437 career applications. The profile shows 12 pending office actions and a resolved allowance rate of 89.87%, indicating that allowance is the recorded result for most resolved matters.
The average of 2.99 office actions per allowance describes prosecution activity associated with allowed matters. It complements, rather than duplicates, the allowance rate because it addresses effort instead of outcome. The pending docket identifies current workload, and the application history provides context for practitioners evaluating the profile's resolution pattern and office-action process.
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 |
|---|---|
| §101 only | 1 (8%) |
| §103 only | 2 (17%) |
| §102 only | 1 (8%) |
