PATTERSON + SHERIDAN, L.L.P. - Dexcom has 38 pending office actions in Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering and 487 career applications. The active docket represents a substantial response workload, with a broader application base supporting interpretation of the reported results.
The resolved allowance rate is 80.8%, and the average is 5.18 office actions per allowance. The allowance rate indicates that a majority of resolved applications reached allowance, while the action average is the highest reported prosecution-effort measure in this profile set. Practitioners should account for the substantial examination activity associated with matters that ultimately allowed.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 10 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. 10 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 | 5 (14%) |
| §101 + other | 13 (35%) |
| §103 only | 5 (14%) |
| §102 only | 1 (3%) |
| §112 only | 2 (5%) |
| Double-patenting only | 1 (3%) |
| Double-patenting + other | 1 (3%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 9 (24%) |
