Bosch Automotive Products (Suzhou) Co. Ltd. has 2 pending office actions in Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems. The matters are distributed across 2 examiners and 2 art units, indicating that the current prosecution workload spans more than one examination assignment.
ZALESKAS, JOHN M is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending action. The examiner distribution is therefore not concentrated in a single examiner. Counsel reviewing this portfolio should track both examiner interactions separately and confirm whether the art-unit assignments raise distinct claim-scope or prior-art issues.
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 |
|---|---|
| §101 + other | 1 (50%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 1 (50%) |
