Studebaker Brackett PLLC has 871 pending office actions in Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics and 27043 career applications. Its resolved allowance rate is 90.36%, indicating that allowance was reached in most resolved matters across a substantial prosecution record.
The firm averages 2.48 office actions per allowance. This shows that successful matters generally involved repeated examination interaction, while the allowance rate reflects a favorable historical outcome. The pending docket is large and creates a meaningful current response workload. For practitioners, the profile combines high activity, extensive application experience, and outcome data that can inform both capacity review and prosecution strategy.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 180 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. 180 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 | 25 (3%) |
| §101 + other | 83 (9%) |
| §103 only | 293 (34%) |
| §102 only | 54 (6%) |
| §112 only | 23 (3%) |
| Double-patenting only | 10 (1%) |
| Double-patenting + other | 17 (2%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 367 (42%) |
| No statute on record | 2 (0%) |
