Cavity Sliders Limited maintains a company patent portfolio that currently shows 1 pending office action. This activity is located within the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems technology area. The prosecution is handled by a distinct examiner working within 1 distinct art unit. This structure reflects a centralized prosecution environment where all current legal efforts are focused on a point of contact at the patent office.
The busiest examiner identified for this portfolio is PONCIANO, PATRICK BERNAS, who is responsible for 1 busiest examiner pending action. Practitioners should note that the portfolio's current momentum is tied to the specific art unit and examiner assigned. With only a distinct art unit involved, the technical scope of active prosecution is limited to a specific domain. The presence of a distinct examiner means that the outcome of the current pending action will define the immediate status of the company's active patent filings.
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.
