Analysis

C-Innovation LLC has a patent portfolio in the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems technology area. There are 2 pending office actions currently active. These actions are split between 2 distinct examiners.

The portfolio involves 2 distinct art units. LAMBE, PATRICK F is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending office action. Each of the 2 pending office actions is being reviewed by a different examiner in a different art unit. This indicates that the company's current prosecution is small but divided across different technical and procedural groups.

The 2 pending office actions represent the full scope of active matters for this entity. With 2 distinct examiners and 2 distinct art units, each case is handled independently. Practitioners should prepare for two different procedural paths for these 2 pending actions within the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems sector. The limited scale of the portfolio allows for focused attention on each individual matter.
