BenQ Corporation currently has 3 pending office actions in the Communications technology area. These actions are split among 3 distinct examiners and 3 distinct art units. PULLIAS, JESSE SCOTT is the busiest examiner, holding 1 pending office action.
Having 3 pending office actions assigned to 3 distinct examiners means that each case is being reviewed by a different person. This lack of examiner overlap suggests that the company cannot use a unified negotiation strategy for its current docket. The involvement of 3 distinct art units also indicates that the 3 pending office actions cover different technical aspects of communications technology. Practitioners must adapt to the individual styles of three different examiners, as PULLIAS, JESSE SCOTT only manages 1 pending office action. This distribution requires a more complex management approach than a concentrated docket, as each of the 3 pending office actions may face different procedural hurdles and examination standards. The presence of 3 distinct examiners for 3 pending office actions ensures that the company's patent prospects are not tied to the discretion of a single individual.
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.
