3 pending office actions • 2 art units • 3 examiners • 0 of 3 (0%) have an AI response strategy ready
Avatarin Inc. currently maintains 3 pending office actions within the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems technology area. These matters are distributed across 3 distinct examiners and 2 distinct art units. This distribution indicates that while the portfolio is small, it touches multiple examination groups. KUJUNDZIC, DINO is the busiest examiner, currently handling 1 pending office action.
The presence of 2 distinct art units for the pending actions suggests the technology may span different classification categories. Practitioners should note that each case is receiving a unique perspective from the assigned examiners. This variety in personnel and art units requires the applicant to be familiar with the specific practices of multiple divisions within the transportation and mechanical sectors. Managing these distinct examiners simultaneously requires a flexible approach to prosecution.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 3 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
Every pending office action with a known statutory deadline, placed on a days-until-due axis. Dots left of Today are overdue; the further right, the more runway. Cases that share a deadline window stack vertically. 3 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date.
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.
