BOART LONGYEAR COMPANY manages a company patent portfolio within the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems technology area. There is 1 pending office action currently recorded for this portfolio. This activity is limited to 1 distinct examiner and the specified art unit. This indicates that the company's current prosecution efforts are not diversified across multiple examiners or technical departments at this time.
CRAIG, DANIEL THOMAS is the busiest examiner for this portfolio, holding the busiest examiner pending action. As the total number of pending office actions matches this examiner's workload, this individual is the only official currently engaged with the company's applications. The focus within the distinct art unit in the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems area shows that the company's interactions are concentrated on a single review path.
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.
