Pierson Ferdinand, LLP has 34 pending office actions in Computing & Software and 557 career applications in its recorded portfolio. The current pending workload is therefore presented alongside a meaningful prosecution history in a technology area where claim scope and software functionality can require sustained examination strategy.
The resolved allowance rate is 88.73%, while the average is 2.92 office actions per allowance. Together, these figures describe a portfolio in which resolved matters frequently reach allowance after more than one office-action cycle, while the allowance rate remains high within the firm’s recorded work. Clients can use the profile to assess software prosecution experience with attention to both outcomes and response activity.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 9 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. 9 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.
