Chaos Industries Inc. maintains 2 pending office actions within the Communications technology area. The 2 active matters are situated within 1 distinct art unit, reflecting a focused technical classification for the current portfolio. The prosecution process involves 2 distinct examiners, which indicates that each pending action is being reviewed by a different individual despite the shared art unit. This suggests that the company's technology is being scrutinized by multiple sets of eyes within a specific administrative group.
SALOMON, PHENUEL S is the busiest examiner for this entity, currently managing 1 pending office action. This individual's responsibility covers a portion of the 2 total pending office actions for the company. The concentration of the portfolio into 1 distinct art unit while utilizing 2 distinct examiners suggests a specific area of communications technology is being examined by different personnel. Practitioners may find that while the art unit remains constant, the individual examiner's approach will vary between the pending matters.
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.
| Bucket | Cases |
|---|---|
| §101 + other | 1 (50%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 1 (50%) |
