Agscent Pty Ltd maintains a company patent portfolio currently focused on the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering technology area. The portfolio shows 1 pending office action, which is being handled by 1 distinct examiner. This indicates a highly concentrated prosecution effort within a single art unit. Practitioners should note that the current workload is distributed across 1 distinct art unit, suggesting a specific technical focus for the pending application.
The busiest examiner for this portfolio is DOAN, HY KHANH, who is responsible for 1 pending office action. Because there is only 1 distinct examiner and 1 distinct art unit, the prosecution strategy appears centralized. This structure allows for a direct relationship with the assigned examiner for the pending matter. With only 1 pending office action total, the portfolio's current administrative footprint is minimal and highly localized at the patent office.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 1 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.
