The PL Law Group, PLLC works in Biotechnology & Pharmaceuticals, with 2,524 career applications and 83 pending office actions. Its resolved allowance rate is 84.46%, indicating a substantial allowance outcome across a sizable application record.
Allowed matters average 2.82 office actions, showing that resolution commonly involves more than one examination exchange. The pending docket represents continuing prosecution activity, so practitioners should pair historical outcome review with active response management. The application volume provides context for the allowance rate, while the office-action average helps assess the procedural effort associated with allowed matters.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 15 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. 15 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 | 2 (2%) |
| §101 + other | 12 (15%) |
| §103 only | 29 (36%) |
| §102 only | 3 (4%) |
| §112 only | 1 (1%) |
| Double-patenting + other | 5 (6%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 29 (36%) |
How the docket's pending cases split across USPTO tech-center bands.
