Cloudstream Medical Imaging Inc. is currently handling 3 pending office actions within the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering technology area. These actions are spread across 3 distinct examiners and 2 distinct art units. This indicates that while the technology is focused, the examination is being conducted by several different individuals.
Taylor M Deutsch is the busiest examiner for the portfolio, with 1 pending office action. With multiple examiners involved, the workload is distributed across the personnel responsible for the company's active matters.
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 + other | 1 (33%) |
| §112 only | 1 (33%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 1 (33%) |
