Qubit IP, PLLC handles Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics matters and has 8 pending office actions. Its record includes 80 career applications, a resolved allowance rate of 96.88%, and an average of 4.0 office actions per allowance.
The allowance rate indicates that most resolved applications in the reported portfolio reached allowance, while the office-action average shows that allowed matters commonly required repeated examination responses. The pending docket is smaller than the reported career application volume, so the active matters represent a limited portion of the recorded practice.
For semiconductor and circuit clients, the combination of outcome and effort metrics supports review of both claim-persistence strategies and the response work typically needed to secure allowance. The figures describe historical prosecution and do not predict the result of any particular pending matter.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 2 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.
| Bucket | Cases |
|---|---|
| §101 + other | 2 (29%) |
| §103 only | 3 (43%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 1 (14%) |
| No statute on record | 1 (14%) |
