Sprinkle IP Law Group has 36 pending office actions in Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems and 2,481 career applications. The figures show an active response docket and a broad application history in the same technology area.
The resolved allowance rate is 89.33%, with an average of 3.49 office actions per allowance. The rate describes resolved outcomes, while the action average indicates the recorded examination activity associated with matters reaching allowance.
For patent practitioners, the profile supports separate capacity and performance analysis. The pending docket is relevant to current response planning, and the historical figures add context for resolved matters. The data does not identify individual claim strategies, examiner effects, or the procedural reasons behind the recorded actions.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 13 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. 13 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 | 6 (17%) |
| §101 + other | 12 (34%) |
| §103 only | 11 (31%) |
| Double-patenting only | 1 (3%) |
| Double-patenting + other | 1 (3%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 4 (11%) |
