Allison Transmission Inc. has 2 pending office actions in the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems technology area. These actions are handled by 2 distinct examiners, with each examiner reviewing a single case. Both of the 2 pending office actions are concentrated within 1 distinct art unit, showing a specific technical focus for these matters. This concentration in 1 distinct art unit suggests that the company's transportation and mechanical innovations are being reviewed by a consistent technical group at the USPTO.
WEBER, GREGORY ROBERT is the busiest examiner for the company, holding 1 pending office action. This matches the distribution across the 2 distinct examiners. The involvement of 1 distinct art unit for both of the 2 pending office actions means that the company's prosecution strategy can be highly focused on the standards of that specific technical division. Despite the involvement of 2 distinct examiners, the shared 1 distinct art unit provides a consistent technical framework for the company's 2 pending office actions in the transportation 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.
