Aph Epower Co. Ltd. has 9 pending office actions in Chemistry & Materials. The matters involve 8 distinct examiners across 8 distinct art units. The examiner and art-unit assignments are broadly distributed, with only limited repetition in the reported workload.
GREENE, PATRICK MARSHALL is the busiest examiner, with 2 pending matters. That examiner provides the clearest concentration in the profile, but the remaining matters are handled elsewhere. Counsel should monitor the repeated assignment while maintaining separate chemistry and materials strategies for the other applications.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 1 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
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 |
|---|---|
| §101 + other | 1 (11%) |
| §103 only | 6 (67%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 2 (22%) |
