Chromatic Technologies Inc. holds a company patent portfolio in the Chemistry & Materials technology area. The portfolio currently includes 2 pending office actions. This reflects active prosecution within the company's chemical and material science research fields, showing a commitment to protecting its material innovations.
The examination is distributed across 2 distinct examiners and 2 distinct art units. This distribution shows that the company's patent applications are being reviewed by different individuals in different technical areas of the patent office. This suggests a broader technological scope for the company's active filings compared to more concentrated portfolios, as it spans 2 distinct art units.
BIJAN AHVAZI is the busiest examiner, with 1 busiest examiner pending office action. This accounts for 1 of the total 2 pending office actions for the portfolio. The other action is managed by the second of the 2 distinct examiners in a different art unit, indicating an even split of the workload across the company's active prosecution. This diversity in examination can provide the company with different perspectives on their various technological claims.
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.
| Bucket | Cases |
|---|---|
| §103 only | 1 (50%) |
