3 pending office actions • 2 art units • 3 examiners • 0 of 3 (0%) have an AI response strategy ready
Broadridge Investor Communication Solutions Inc. manages 3 pending office actions in the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems technology area. These 3 actions are distributed among 3 distinct examiners, ensuring a variety of perspectives during the review process. The portfolio is active in 2 distinct art units, which suggests the company's work covers different specialized fields within the transportation and e-commerce sectors. CHEN, GEORGE YUNG CHIEH is the busiest examiner, though this individual is responsible for only 1 busiest examiner pending action.
This means that all 3 pending office actions are being handled by different examiners. The 2 distinct art units provide a distributed organizational footprint for a portfolio of this size. Practitioners should be prepared for 3 different examination approaches across the 2 distinct art units involved. This distribution of 3 distinct examiners across 2 distinct art units helps the company avoid being overly dependent on a single examiner's discretion. The 1 busiest examiner pending action held by CHEN, GEORGE YUNG CHIEH shows an even distribution of work. This strategy allows for a broader testing of the company's patent claims across different office groups.
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.
