China Meat Research Center is currently managing 2 pending office actions within the Chemistry & Materials technology area. These actions are assigned to 2 distinct examiners, meaning each pending matter is being reviewed by a different individual. This distribution shows that the center's current chemical filings are not consolidated under a single examiner, requiring the applicant to manage two separate review styles simultaneously.
The portfolio is active across 2 distinct art units. This matches the count of 2 distinct examiners, suggesting that each examiner is operating in a different art unit. DIOU BERDECIA, LUIS EUGENIO is the busiest examiner with 1 pending action, which accounts for half of the 2 pending office actions. This structure requires the center to navigate two different regulatory environments and two different examiner review styles simultaneously. For a practitioner, the success of the 2 pending office actions depends on addressing the specific requirements of 2 distinct art units and 2 distinct examiners.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 1 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
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.
