Caranx Medical SAS has 2 pending office actions in the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering technology area. These matters are distributed across 2 distinct examiners and 2 distinct art units. Busiest examiner BACHMAN, LINDSEY MICHELE is responsible for 1 pending office action. This distribution indicates that each pending case is being handled by a different examiner in a separate art unit.
For practitioners, this means there is no concentration of workload under a single official. Each of the 2 pending office actions requires an individualized approach tailored to the specific examiner and art unit. The lack of overlap between the 2 distinct examiners suggests that prosecution strategies cannot be easily consolidated across the current portfolio.
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.
