USPTO - New Patents Petitions Timeline Now Available

On August 26, the USPTO notified:

"The Office of Petitions has launched a new USPTO Patents Petitions Timeline that provides information on petition types that can be filed throughout each stage of the patent prosecution process. For each petition type, users can easily access information on average pendency over the past 12 months of decided petitions, the deciding office, petition grant rates, and link to specific sections of the Manual of Patent Examining Procedure (MPEP) or other parts of the USPTO website that relate to each petition type.
The Patents Petitions Timeline website was developed to help our customers access more detailed statistics, including grant and pendency rates, and useful information about each petition. This will help applicants make better quality decisions on when to file a particular petition type during prosecution or for the life of the issued patent.

Please visit the USPTO's USPTO Patents Petitions Timeline found on http://www.uspto.gov/patents-application-process/petitions/timeline/uspto-petitions-timeline."
