Connectwise LLC has 2 pending office actions in the Networking & Security technology area. Both actions are located within 1 distinct art unit, suggesting a focused examination path for their networking security filings. The company is working with 2 distinct examiners for these matters, matching the total count of active cases. This arrangement ensures that each filing is reviewed by a different official at the patent office.
TANG, KAREN C is the busiest examiner, responsible for 1 pending office action. Because there are 2 distinct examiners for the 2 pending office actions, each examiner is currently managing a single file for the company. The 1 distinct art unit indicates that the technical subject matter falls within a narrow classification. This structure ensures that the 2 pending office actions are evaluated independently, with 1 pending office action assigned to each of the assigned examiners.
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.
