China Medical University has 7 pending office actions in Biotechnology & Pharmaceuticals. Each matter is assigned to a distinct examiner and a distinct art unit, producing a fully distributed examination pattern. Counsel should use application-specific prosecution plans and maintain separate tracking for each examination channel.
ELSHAER, ALAAELDIN M is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. The stated assignment does not identify an examiner concentration, so portfolio oversight should remain distributed across all 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 only | 1 (14%) |
| §101 + other | 2 (29%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 4 (57%) |
