Carcoustics Techconsult GmbH has 1 pending office action in the Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics technology area. This active matter constitutes the company's current focus within this technical field at the patent office. The presence of a pending action suggests a specific and targeted prosecution strategy for the company's semiconductor intellectual property.
The company's prosecution activity is limited to 1 distinct examiner and a specific art unit. This alignment indicates that the company's current patent applications are being reviewed within a narrow technical classification. Jeremy Austin Luks is the busiest examiner for the portfolio, overseeing the pending office action. Because all active prosecution is consolidated under this individual, the process is highly centralized.
For practitioners, this concentration means that the outcome of the company's current patent efforts depends significantly on the examination style of Jeremy Austin Luks. The lack of distribution across multiple art units or examiners simplifies the coordination of prosecution but also limits the variety of examiner perspectives. Future filings in the Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics area may continue to be assigned to this specific art unit if they share similar technical features.
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.
