Stanek Lemon Crouse and Meeks, PA has 44 pending office actions in Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics and 1,459 career applications. The profile reports an 89.04% resolved allowance rate and an average of 3.28 office actions per allowance.
The pending workload gives current prosecution activity a meaningful place in the practice record. An 89.04% resolved allowance rate indicates that allowance was common among resolved matters, while 3.28 office actions per allowance shows that those outcomes typically followed repeated examination activity. Practitioners handling circuit, optical, or semiconductor claims can use these figures to frame expectations for continued examiner engagement and response preparation.
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 + other | 5 (12%) |
| §103 only | 10 (25%) |
| §102 only | 1 (2%) |
| Double-patenting only | 2 (5%) |
| Double-patenting + other | 3 (8%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 19 (48%) |
