SHEEHAN PHINNEY BASS & GREEN, PA focuses on the Computing & Software technology area, with 1013 career applications. The firm has achieved a resolved allowance rate pct of 87.12. Currently, there are 15 pending office actions in its docket. The 1013 career applications show a foundation of experience in software-related patent law.
The average office actions per allowance for this profile is 3.35. This metric helps set expectations for the number of office actions required to reach an allowance in the Computing & Software field. The 87.12 resolved allowance rate pct reflects the degree of success for the 1013 career applications managed by the firm. With 15 pending office actions, the firm is actively processing its current workload. These data points together illustrate the firm's historical performance and its current status within its primary technology area.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 6 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. 6 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 | 1 (5%) |
| §101 + other | 6 (32%) |
| §103 only | 6 (32%) |
| §112 only | 1 (5%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 5 (26%) |
