Westborough IP Group, LLC works in Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics and reports 1034 career applications. The profile includes 13 pending office actions, providing a defined current workload alongside a substantial application base. Its resolved allowance rate is 86.61%, indicating that allowance has been recorded for a large share of resolved applications.
Allowances average 3.07 office actions. This shows that the reported allowance outcome is associated with examination activity extending beyond a single action in the typical matter. A practitioner reviewing the profile should consider both dimensions: the allowance rate describes outcomes, while the action average describes the prosecution effort associated with those outcomes. The pending matters provide a separate current docket indicator.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 5 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. 5 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 | 1 (7%) |
| §103 only | 3 (21%) |
| §102 only | 3 (21%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 7 (50%) |
