BEIJING WORLDIA DIAMOND TOOLS CO., LTD. oversees a company patent portfolio in the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering technology area. The portfolio currently includes 2 pending office actions. These actions are distributed among 2 distinct examiners, meaning each pending matter is being reviewed by a different official. This distribution provides the company with two separate channels of communication within the patent office for its current applications, which can lead to diverse examiner perspectives.
The prosecution is spread across 2 distinct art units, showing a consistent level of specialization across the different applications. Ryan J Walters is the busiest examiner for the portfolio, currently handling 1 busiest examiner pending office action. Since there are 2 actions and 2 examiners, the workload is evenly split, with each examiner managing exactly one pending matter. This distribution provides the company with two separate channels of communication within two different specialized art units, requiring the practitioner to tailor their advocacy to the specific requirements of each individual examiner involved in the portfolio.
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.
