Maschoff Brennan Gilmore Israelsen & Mauriel LLP handles Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems matters. Its profile includes 758 career applications and 28 pending office actions, showing ongoing prosecution within a moderate historical application record.
The resolved allowance rate is 83.3%, and an allowance required an average of 3.39 office actions. The data therefore points to a record in which most resolved applications reached allowance, while examination commonly involved several actions. Practitioners can use the pending count to assess active workload separately from historical outcomes.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 6 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. 6 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 | 5 (22%) |
| §103 only | 9 (39%) |
| §102 only | 1 (4%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 8 (35%) |
