Autotech Engineering S L currently operates within the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems technology area with 5 pending office actions. This portfolio is distributed across 4 distinct examiners, suggesting that the company's legal team must adapt to several different examination styles simultaneously. The technical scope of these applications spans 3 distinct art units, which indicates a moderate level of diversity in the specific mechanical or system-based classifications being pursued.
The examiner COLILLA, DANIEL JAMES is the most active figure in this portfolio, currently handling 2 pending office actions. This concentration with a specific individual provides a point of consistency for the company's prosecution strategy, as this examiner manages a larger portion of the workload than any other single examiner. For practitioners, the distribution across 4 distinct examiners and 3 distinct art units requires a coordinated approach to ensure that arguments made in one matter remain consistent with those in others, especially when dealing with the 2 actions assigned to the same examiner.
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 |
