Otterstedt & Kammer PLLC works in Networking & Security and has 6 pending office actions across 254 career applications. The resolved allowance rate is 96.35%, showing allowance in nearly all resolved applications in the reported record.
The average of 4.76 office actions per allowance indicates that favorable resolved outcomes can follow substantial examination activity. Practitioners should therefore distinguish outcome results from prosecution effort when planning responses and managing the current pending docket.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 1 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
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.
