42dot Inc. has 9 pending office actions in Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems. The matters are distributed among 9 distinct examiners and 7 distinct art units. This indicates that each action has a separate examiner relationship, while some technical grouping remains within the art-unit assignments.
SAMARA, HUSAM TURKI is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. The recorded examiner concentration is therefore limited. Counsel can use the individual matter histories as the primary guide, while comparing cases assigned to the same art unit for potentially useful prosecution consistency.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 2 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
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 | 7 (78%) |
| §103 only | 1 (11%) |
| §102 only | 1 (11%) |
