Does more volume mean deeper claims for California?
Each dot is one of California’s 8 nearest volume peers (same corpus rank neighbourhood as the chart above), placed by total granted patents (horizontal) against average claims per patent (vertical). California’s own 17.9 claims/patent is ABOVE the 16.9 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.
Where California's grants concentrate
California Northstate College OF Pharmacy, LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 6 CPC subclasses with 76.9% of grants classified under A61P (Specific Therapeutic Activity OF Chemical Compounds OR Medicinal Preparations). Peak complete grant year is 2024 (5 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, California sits between C.E.R.M.E.X. Constructions Etudes ET Recherches DE Materiels Pour L'emballage D'expedition and Canadian Blood Services.
California's three-year grant acceleration
California Northstate College OF Pharmacy, LLC shows 6 grants in 2022–2024 against only 5 in 2019–2021. That prior window is too thin for a growth multiple (rename and spin-out assignees look artificially high when the baseline is near zero), so PlainPatent withholds a ranked acceleration claim here.
