STEVENS & SHOWALTER LLP has 10 pending office actions in Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems and 1208 career applications. Its resolved allowance rate is 92.46%, showing a high share of resolved matters reaching allowance in the reported record.
The firm averages 2.61 office actions per allowance. This combination indicates that allowed matters generally required more than one examination interaction, while the allowance rate shows that continued prosecution often produced a favorable result. The pending docket gives practitioners a current workload signal, and the career application figure supplies substantial context for interpreting the historical outcome measures.
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.
