The Red Queen’s Race

No new amendments arrived, and I finished an Office Action on the amendment which was on my Expedited docket. I also wrote an Office Action on one of the three cases on my Amended docket, but I couldn’t post it for credit, since it was an Examiner’s Answer responding to an Appeal Brief. Instead, I posted it to my supervisor for consultation. If she signs it, and then a second supervisor signs it, I will be able to post it for credit, and then, at some future time, the Board of Appeals will decide how to rule on it. Meanwhile, I am still at three cases on my Amended docket, but down to zero on my Expedited docket.

I also finished a first action on my oldest Regular New application. This coming week, I hope to do a first action on another Regular New case. There’s just one week left in the third quarter.
