BELDEN CANADA ULC has 5 pending office actions in Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics. The matters involve 5 distinct examiners and 4 distinct art units, indicating multiple examination assignments with some art-unit overlap.
MAYO III, WILLIAM H is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. Since no examiner handles more than 1 action in the profile, counsel should coordinate the docket through shared technical and claim records while preparing individualized responses for each art unit.
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 |
|---|---|
| §103 only | 1 (20%) |
| §112 only | 1 (20%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 3 (60%) |
