Technology area: Chemistry & Materials
2 pending office actions • 2 art units • 2 examiners • 0 of 2 (0%) have an AI response strategy ready
Campbell Soup Company is currently managing 2 pending office actions in the Chemistry & Materials technology area. These matters are assigned to 2 distinct examiners and 2 distinct art units. This distribution indicates that the company's current patent activity is split between different technical specialties within the chemistry field. Managing 2 distinct art units requires the company to tailor its prosecution strategy to the specific technical standards of each unit.
The busiest examiner for the portfolio is MORENO, LARK JULIA, who is responsible for 1 pending office action. Since there are 2 pending actions and 2 distinct examiners, each examiner is handling a single matter. The company must therefore manage separate prosecution tracks across the 2 distinct art units identified in the data. Practitioners should ensure that the responses to the pending office actions are consistent with the company's overall intellectual property goals, even as they address the unique concerns of each distinct examiner. This balanced distribution of 1 pending action per examiner allows for a focused approach to each individual application.
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.
