CLAAS Selbstfahrende Erntemaschinen GmbH has 9 pending office actions in Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems. The portfolio spans 9 distinct examiners and 8 distinct art units. Examiner assignments are fully dispersed, while one art unit handles more than one matter. This calls for broad coordination across examiners with some opportunity to monitor recurring unit-level practice.
KINGSLAND, KYLE J is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. No examiner accounts for a concentrated portion of the docket. Counsel should maintain a common technical and disclosure framework while tailoring amendments and arguments to each individual record.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 2 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 |
|---|---|
| §101 only | 1 (11%) |
| §101 + other | 2 (22%) |
| §103 only | 2 (22%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 4 (44%) |
