Ceva Santé Animale S A operates a patent portfolio within the Biotechnology & Pharmaceuticals technology area. The company currently has 1 pending office action. This action is assigned to 1 distinct art unit, which points to a specific technical classification for the company's current intellectual property.
The prosecution involves 1 distinct examiner, NISSA M WESTERBERG. This examiner is the busiest examiner for the company, with 1 busiest examiner pending action. Given that there is only 1 pending office action, the entire prosecution effort is concentrated with the 1 distinct examiner. Practitioners can see that the 1 busiest examiner pending action represents the total volume of pending matters for the portfolio. The use of the 1 distinct art unit indicates that the company is not currently navigating multiple technical divisions at the patent office. This streamlined prosecution environment means that the 1 pending office action is the sole focus of the company's current patent office interactions.
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.
