Cardo Systems Ltd. currently manages 2 pending office actions within the Communications technology area. These 2 pending office actions are assigned to 2 distinct examiners. The prosecution is also distributed across 2 distinct art units. This distribution across 2 distinct art units indicates that the company's matters are being reviewed in different administrative divisions. The presence of 2 distinct examiners suggests that the company's legal strategy involves interacting with multiple individuals at the patent office.
KUASSI A GANMAVO is the busiest examiner for the company. This examiner is responsible for 1 pending office action. The 1 pending office action assigned to this examiner represents the highest individual workload within the portfolio. Having 1 pending office action with the busiest examiner shows that the workload is distributed among the 2 distinct examiners. This structure requires the company to manage its communications technology patents across different personnel and art units.
The management of 2 pending office actions across 2 distinct art units reflects the company's current engagement with the patent office. With 2 distinct examiners involved, the company must address the specific requirements of different officials. This approach to prosecution in the Communications sector ensures that the company's intellectual property is reviewed by various experts within the 2 distinct art units.
