Bemis Manufacturing Company has 3 pending office actions in Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering. The matters involve 2 examiners across 2 art units, indicating some concentration in examiner assignments while the technical settings remain divided.
SKUBINNA, CHRISTINE J is the busiest examiner, with 2 pending matters. That examiner’s handling of related claim language may provide a useful point for coordinating responses, while the separate art-unit assignments still require matter-specific analysis.
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.
