KIM, YUNJU is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. Portfolio management should coordinate technical and claim themes while preserving separate strategies for the different examination assignments.
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.
