Cem Tech LLC has 1 pending office action within the Chemistry & Materials technology area. This prosecution is handled by 1 distinct examiner and is located within a single art unit. Such a focused profile indicates a singular point of contact for the company's current patent interests. The alignment of the action with a specific art unit suggests a straightforward administrative path for this filing.
LIANG, SHIBIN is the busiest examiner for the portfolio, currently overseeing the active matter. Because this examiner is the only one assigned to the company's active matters, the prosecution timeline is entirely dependent on their specific workload and review speed. Practitioners should focus on the specific precedents and preferences of this examiner to resolve the pending action efficiently. The limited scope of the current activity reflects a very targeted or early-stage prosecution phase for the company.
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.
