BAADER Food Systems USA, Inc. operates in the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems technology area. The company currently has 2 pending office actions. These actions are distributed among 2 distinct examiners, which means that each active matter is being reviewed by a different individual.
The portfolio spans 2 distinct art units. This alignment between the number of actions, examiners, and art units suggests that each of the company's active filings is situated in a different technical sub-specialty or administrative group. PARSLEY, DAVID J is the busiest examiner for the portfolio.
PARSLEY, DAVID J is responsible for 1 busiest examiner pending action. Since the total number of pending office actions is 2, this examiner handles 1 of the 2 active workload matters. The presence of 2 distinct examiners across 2 distinct art units for only 2 pending actions demonstrates a fragmented prosecution profile, where no two active cases are currently being evaluated by the same person or within the same art unit.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 2 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.
