Alitheon, Inc. has 2 pending office actions in Networking & Security. The matters involve 2 distinct examiners and 2 distinct art units, with STEINLE, ANDREW J handling 1 pending matter.
Each matter follows its own examination path. Counsel should manage the applications separately while maintaining consistent terminology and technical positions where their subject matter overlaps.
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.
