Aspect Imaging Ltd. has 2 pending office actions in the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering technology area. These actions are distributed across 2 distinct examiners and the relevant art units. This suggests that each pending application is being reviewed independently by different personnel in different units.
Peter Luong is the busiest examiner for the portfolio, managing 1 pending office action. With the distinct examiners involved, the current pending workload is split across the company's active matters.
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.
