Aktiebolaget Electrolux currently has 2 pending office actions in the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems technology area. These actions are distributed between 2 distinct examiners, ensuring that each case is reviewed by a different individual. The portfolio also spans 2 distinct art units, which indicates that the pending matters fall into different technical sub-categories.
The busiest examiner, ALKIRSH, AHMED, is responsible for 1 pending office action. Since there are 2 pending office actions and 2 distinct examiners, each examiner is managing exactly 1 action. This lack of concentration across examiners and the 2 distinct art units means that the company must navigate different examination environments for its pending applications.
Practitioners should note that the 2 pending office actions are handled by distinct examiners, including ALKIRSH, AHMED. This distribution across 2 distinct art units suggests that the technical focus is not centralized in a single group. With 1 pending action per examiner, the prosecution requires addressing the specific feedback of each individual examiner separately.
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.
