Advanced Innergy Ltd. currently manages 3 pending office actions within the Chemistry & Materials technology area. These actions are distributed among 3 distinct examiners. Furthermore, the portfolio spans 3 distinct art units, showing a complete distribution where each action is handled by a unique examiner in a unique art unit. This total distribution suggests that the company's chemical and material innovations are technically diverse and fall into 3 separate specialized groups at the USPTO.
The busiest examiner for the company is LAWSON, STACY N, who is responsible for 1 busiest examiner pending action. This indicates that the workload is perfectly balanced across the 3 examiners. Practitioners must prepare for 3 different examination styles and 3 different art unit standards. The diversity in art units requires a broad prosecution strategy that can adapt to the specific requirements of each group. Managing 3 actions across 3 examiners and 3 art units means that there is no overlap in the current pending workload, requiring individual attention for each matter.
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 |
|---|---|
| §103 only | 2 (67%) |
