GOLDEN, CHINESSA T is the busiest examiner for the company, overseeing the busiest examiner pending office action. This active matter represents the company's current efforts to secure patent protection in the chemical materials space. The concentration of the portfolio under a single examiner allows for a direct and consistent dialogue during the prosecution of the technology.
Practitioners should note that the alignment of the pending matter within the specified technology area ensures that the examination is conducted by a specialist in chemistry and materials. The focus on a single examiner and art unit provides a streamlined prosecution environment. This structure minimizes the complexity often associated with managing multiple examiner relationships across different technical units at the USPTO.
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.
