Ateco Inc. holds a portfolio in the Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics technology area with 2 pending office actions. These are distributed among 2 distinct examiners, meaning each pending matter is reviewed by a different person. VELEZ, ROBERTO is the busiest examiner with 1 busiest examiner pending action. The portfolio is active in 1 distinct art unit.
The 2 pending office actions suggest a small but active docket. With 2 distinct examiners, the applicant manages 2 separate relationships. Because both matters are within 1 distinct art unit, the applicant can apply a consistent technological strategy. The 1 busiest examiner pending action for VELEZ, ROBERTO shows that the workload is split between the 2 distinct examiners. Managing 2 pending office actions in 1 distinct art unit allows for specialized focus.
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.
