Carbios has 6 pending office actions in Chemistry & Materials. The matters are distributed among 5 examiners and 5 art units, showing broad dispersion across the examination structure.
HUSON, MONICA ANNE is the busiest examiner, with 2 pending matters. Counsel should use that relationship for coordination while maintaining matter-specific strategies for the other examiner and art-unit assignments.
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 | 2 (40%) |
| Double-patenting + other | 2 (40%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 1 (20%) |
