PIIP manages 617 career applications in Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics. The firm has a resolved allowance rate of 86.59 percent. Prosecution is exceptionally efficient, with an average of 0.92 office actions per allowance. There are 14 pending office actions currently.
The 86.59 percent allowance rate and the 0.92 office actions per allowance figure are notable metrics for this firm. With 617 career applications, the data shows a strong and efficient prosecution practice. The average of 0.92 office actions per allowance is particularly striking, suggesting many applications are allowed with minimal examiner interaction.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 3 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. 3 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 + other | 1 (3%) |
| §103 only | 10 (33%) |
| §102 only | 1 (3%) |
| §112 only | 7 (23%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 10 (33%) |
| No statute on record | 1 (3%) |
