Law Office of Joseph L. Felber has 17 pending office actions in Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering and 362 career applications. The data shows an active present workload alongside a historical application base in the same technical area.
The resolved allowance rate is 85.06%, and the average is 3.0 office actions per allowance. These figures distinguish outcome frequency from examination effort. Practitioners can use the record to plan for ongoing response activity and to place current matters in historical context, but the measures do not predict the disposition of any individual application.
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 + other | 1 (6%) |
| §103 only | 2 (12%) |
| §102 only | 1 (6%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 12 (75%) |
