SUITER SWANTZ IP has 49 pending office actions in Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems and 2658 career applications. Its resolved allowance rate is 86.89%, indicating that allowance was reached in most resolved matters.
The firm averages 2.77 office actions per allowance. This shows that successful prosecution generally involved more than one examination interaction, while the allowance rate indicates a favorable historical outcome pattern. The active docket is substantial enough to merit capacity attention, and the career application record provides context for evaluating the firm’s prosecution experience in this technology area.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 12 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. 12 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 | 6 (12%) |
| §103 only | 15 (29%) |
| §102 only | 4 (8%) |
| §112 only | 1 (2%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 25 (49%) |
