Ashok Ettam maintains a patent portfolio in the Biotechnology & Pharmaceuticals technology area. The data shows 1 pending office action currently active for this entity. This prosecution is managed by a distinct examiner, which reflects a focus for the portfolio's current legal activity at the patent office. Such a concentrated profile often indicates a core technology or an early stage of portfolio development.
The portfolio's examination is occurring within 1 distinct art unit. JOHN S KENYON is the busiest examiner associated with the portfolio, holding a pending office action. This examiner's workload represents the total pending office actions for the company, showing that the current prosecution efforts are concentrated under an individual's review within the biotechnology sector. For the applicant, this means that the prosecution strategy is dependent on the interactions with this specific examiner and the standards of a particular 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.
