Canon Optron Inc. has 3 pending office actions in Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics. The docket involves 2 distinct examiners and 2 distinct art units, with FANG, MICHAEL handling 2 pending matters.
The concentration at one examiner makes coordinated review of the two related examination matters useful, particularly for claim language and prior-art distinctions. The remaining matter should be assessed in its own art-unit context.
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 |
|---|---|
| §103 only | 1 (33%) |
