Whitestone Law, PLLC focuses on Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering and reports 376 career applications. The profile lists 26 pending office actions, indicating a current unresolved workload that is material in relation to the stated application base. Its resolved allowance rate is 86.73%, showing that allowance was recorded for a substantial share of resolved applications.
The average of 3.08 office actions per allowance indicates that successful prosecution commonly involves multiple responses to examination. Practitioners should therefore treat the allowance rate as an outcome measure and the action average as a measure of process intensity. Together with the pending docket, these figures provide context for both historical prosecution results and current workload review.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 9 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. 9 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 | 1 (4%) |
| §103 only | 8 (29%) |
| §102 only | 1 (4%) |
| §112 only | 1 (4%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 17 (61%) |
