PATENT BEACH PC operates in Networking & Security across 325 career applications. Its current docket includes 20 pending office actions, indicating ongoing prosecution work that requires response and deadline management.
The resolved allowance rate is 94.78%, and allowed matters receive an average of 3.8 office actions. The record combines an outcome measure with a measure of examiner interaction before allowance. Practitioners can use this distinction when evaluating prosecution results, estimating response activity, and reviewing claim strategy.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 5 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. 5 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 (5%) |
| §101 + other | 1 (5%) |
| §103 only | 4 (21%) |
| §102 only | 1 (5%) |
| §112 only | 3 (16%) |
| Double-patenting only | 1 (5%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 8 (42%) |
