2 pending office actions • 1 art units • 2 examiners • 0 of 2 (0%) have an AI response strategy ready • 1 patents granted in the last 365 days
Adrian Rivera Maynez Enterprises Inc. manages a patent portfolio in the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering technology area with 2 pending office actions. These actions are handled by 2 distinct examiners. Interestingly, both examiners are located within 1 distinct art unit, suggesting a very narrow technical focus for the company's pending work.
The busiest examiner, MACEDA, KRYSTENE NHE BANDONG, is currently managing 1 pending office action. With a total of 2 pending office actions, the workload is split between 2 distinct examiners. This indicates that while the technical area is concentrated in 1 distinct art unit, the company must still navigate the individual preferences of two different examiners.
For practitioners, the presence of 2 distinct examiners within 1 distinct art unit is a unique configuration. It suggests that while the subject matter is consistent, the 2 pending office actions are being evaluated independently. Monitoring the 1 pending office action under the busiest examiner provides insight into half of the company's current active workload in the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering sector.
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 |
|---|---|
| Double-patenting + other | 1 (50%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 1 (50%) |
