Calterah Semiconductor Technology (Shanghai) Co. Ltd. has 4 pending office actions in the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems technology area. These actions are assigned to 4 distinct examiners, yet all of them are concentrated within 1 distinct art unit. This suggests that while different individuals are reviewing the applications, they are all operating under the same administrative and technical guidelines of a single unit. The focus on this specific art unit for all pending office actions indicates a very specific application of technology.
The busiest examiner is SIDDIQUEE, ISMAAEEL ABDULLAH, who is responsible for 1 pending office action. Given the distribution of examiners, each individual is managing a single case. This distribution means that no single examiner has a dominant influence over the portfolio, but the previously mentioned art unit provides a common environment for the pending office actions. Practitioners should look for commonalities in how the distinct examiners interpret the relevant prior art and statutes for the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems area.
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 (25%) |
| §102 only | 1 (25%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 2 (50%) |
How the docket's pending cases split across USPTO tech-center bands.
Manual office-action response work runs about 10 hours per case. The time-saved bands below show what IP Author's prosecution pipeline typically delivers — a conservative 20% on the low end, 35% in the middle, 50% on the high end.
