Bunker Corp. Dba Energy Suspension has 1 pending office action in the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems technology area. This action is assigned to 1 distinct examiner, JOHNSON, PHILLIP A, who is the busiest examiner with 1 pending action. The matter is being prosecuted in 1 distinct art unit, representing the entirety of the company's current pending patent activity.
The concentration of the workload under JOHNSON, PHILLIP A means the company's immediate patent outcomes depend on the specific review preferences of this individual. Since the portfolio involves only 1 distinct art unit, there are no competing unit-level policies to navigate. This singular administrative path allows for a direct communication strategy between the applicant and the examiner to resolve the 1 pending office action.
Practitioners should analyze the historical patterns of the involved art unit to anticipate procedural expectations. Because there is only 1 pending office action, the strategy does not need to account for diverse examiner backgrounds or conflicting art unit cultures. The focus remains entirely on the specific tendencies of JOHNSON, PHILLIP A and the 1 distinct art unit assigned to this matter.
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.
