Airbus Defence And Space S A U currently maintains 1 pending office action within the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems technology area. This single matter is assigned to 1 distinct art unit, indicating a highly specific technical focus for the company's current prosecution activity. The involvement of only 1 distinct examiner suggests a singular point of contact and a concentrated examination process at the USPTO for this specific case.
Colin Naysan Misha Zohoori is identified as the busiest examiner for this portfolio, currently overseeing 1 pending office action. This individual handles the entirety of the company's pending workload, as there is only 1 pending office action in total. For practitioners, this means that the outcome of the company's current patent efforts depends on the review of this specific examiner within their assigned art unit. The lack of broader distribution across other examiners or units reflects a very narrow current filing footprint. This 1 to 1 ratio between the examiner and the total pending actions simplifies the communication channel but increases reliance on a single examiner's interpretation.
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.
