Brain Corporation has 5 pending office actions in Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems. The matters are assigned across 5 distinct examiners and 5 distinct art units, so the pending docket spans separate examination environments.
NGUYEN, BAO LONG T is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. The absence of a more concentrated assignment pattern makes docket-level coordination and matter-specific response planning more important than relying on a single examiner strategy.
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.
| Bucket | Cases |
|---|---|
| §101 + other | 2 (40%) |
| §103 only | 2 (40%) |
| §112 only | 1 (20%) |
