CONTEMPORARY AMPEREX TECHNOLOGY (HONG KONG) LIMITED currently manages 1 pending office action in the Chemistry & Materials technology area. This matter is assigned to 1 distinct examiner and is located within a single art unit. This indicates a focused prosecution effort where all current activity is directed toward a single examiner's review within a specific technical group.
WEINER, LAURA S is the busiest examiner for this portfolio, holding the active matter. Because the total number of pending office actions is the reported amount, this examiner is responsible for the entirety of the company's active workload. The concentration of the case in a single art unit and with a distinct examiner allows the applicant to focus their legal strategy on the specific feedback of this individual. Resolving the matter will require addressing the particular concerns raised by this single examiner in the Chemistry & Materials field.
