Aquabeam LLC currently manages 2 pending office actions within the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering technology area. These matters are distributed among 2 distinct examiners, indicating that each application is being reviewed by a different individual. The prosecution is organized across 1 distinct art unit, suggesting that the company's filings in the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering sector are grouped into a single technical category.
The busiest examiner for the portfolio is ROANE, AARON F, who is responsible for 1 busiest examiner pending office action. This confirms that the workload is perfectly distributed, as each of the 2 distinct examiners is handling exactly one of the company's pending matters. No single examiner currently manages more than one of the 2 pending office actions in the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering sector.
The use of 1 distinct art unit for 2 pending office actions indicates a high degree of technical focus within the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering field. However, with 2 distinct examiners involved, the company must still account for different examination styles. The presence of 2 distinct examiners for 2 pending office actions requires the company to maintain simultaneous dialogues with the patent office while following the standards of 1 distinct art unit.
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.
