Analysis

SERVILLA WHITNEY LLC has 37 pending office actions in Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics, alongside 1314 career applications. The profile combines a substantial current workload with a larger historical application record in semiconductor and optical technology.

Its resolved allowance rate is 78.69%, and allowed cases average 3.63 office actions. The allowance rate supplies an outcome measure across the recorded applications, while the office-action average indicates that allowance commonly follows multiple examination exchanges. For practitioners, these metrics are useful together: one describes resolved results and the other describes prosecution activity associated with allowed cases.

Written from this page's own data; every figure is computed from USPTO records and verified before publication.
