Chongqing University Of Posts And Telecommunications is currently prosecuting a patent portfolio within the Networking & Security technology area. The data indicates a very focused administrative profile, as there is only 1 pending office action across the entire portfolio. This single matter is being reviewed by a single distinct examiner within 1 distinct art unit, reflecting a concentrated point of contact within the patent office. Such a profile often indicates a highly specific research focus or a selective approach to maintaining active applications in the Networking & Security sector.
The busiest examiner for the university is HIGA, BRENDAN Y, who is currently handling a single pending office action. This specific examiner represents the total pending workload for the company, meaning that the current prosecution success depends on the interactions with this individual. The presence of only a single art unit further confirms that the university's current active filings are not distributed across diverse technical examination groups. For legal teams, this means that the prosecution strategy can be tailored specifically to the preferences and history of this examiner without the need to manage conflicting requirements from different art units.
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.
