Airoha Technology Corp. currently has 4 pending office actions in the Networking & Security technology area. These actions are handled by 4 distinct examiners across 4 distinct art units. SCOTT B CHRISTENSEN is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending action currently under his review. The distribution of 4 actions across 4 examiners suggests a lack of examiner concentration in their current filings.
Because the portfolio spans 4 distinct art units, the pending office actions likely involve a variety of networking and security technologies. The involvement of 4 distinct examiners means that the company must navigate different sets of examiner preferences and styles. SCOTT B CHRISTENSEN's 1 pending action represents a single component of this broader prosecution landscape. This structure, where each action is in a different art unit, indicates a diverse range of technical subject matter being protected within the Networking & Security 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 |
