Cd Diagnostics Inc. currently has 2 pending office actions in the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems technology area. These active matters are split between 2 distinct examiners and 2 distinct art units, showing a complete diversification of its current prosecution workload. This means that every pending case is being handled by a different examiner in a different art unit.
The busiest examiner for the company is HRANEK, KAREN AMANDA, who is managing 1 pending office action. Since the busiest examiner pending count is 1 and there are 2 pending office actions in total, the workload is balanced between the 2 distinct examiners. This distribution ensures that no single examiner or art unit has a concentrated influence over the company's active portfolio.
For practitioners, this data suggests that Cd Diagnostics Inc. must manage 2 entirely separate prosecution tracks within the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems sector. With 2 pending office actions spread across 2 distinct art units and 2 distinct examiners, there is no overlap in the current review process. This requires a versatile strategy to address the specific requirements of 2 distinct examiners simultaneously.
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.
