Bomag GmbH is currently navigating 3 pending office actions within the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems technology area. Each of these 3 pending office actions is assigned to a different individual, resulting in 3 distinct examiners for the portfolio. The workload is also distributed across 3 distinct art units, which indicates that each of the company's pending applications is being reviewed by a unique specialized department within the patent office.
LEE, MATTHEW D is the busiest examiner for the company, currently overseeing 1 pending office action. Because the 3 pending office actions are spread across 3 distinct examiners and 3 distinct art units, there is no concentration of personnel or departments that would allow for a unified prosecution approach. Instead, the company must tailor its strategy to the specific requirements of each official within the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems sector, as each of the 3 distinct examiners will bring a different perspective to the review.
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 |
|---|---|
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 3 (100%) |
