NATH, GOLDBERG & MEYER has 14 pending office actions in Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering and 7437 career applications. The profile reflects a substantial application history with continuing activity in device and engineering prosecution.
The resolved allowance rate is 77.67%, and the average is 1.93 office actions per allowance. The reported outcome provides a resolution measure, while the action average indicates a relatively direct path to allowance within the stated record.
Practitioners should consider these measures together, since outcome and examination effort address different planning questions. The pending docket indicates current work, and the career application count supplies context for the historical metrics.
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 | 6 (46%) |
| Double-patenting + other | 1 (8%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 5 (38%) |
