Conworth manages a company patent portfolio in the Computing & Software technology area. The portfolio currently includes 1 pending office action. This single action is being reviewed by 1 distinct examiner within 1 distinct art unit, representing a specific point of contact within the patent office. The presence of 1 pending office action suggests a highly focused prosecution effort for the company at this time.
The busiest examiner for this portfolio is SAMWEL, DANIEL, who is assigned the 1 pending office action. Because there is only 1 distinct examiner involved, this individual manages the entirety of the company's current pending workload. This concentration is further reflected in the use of just 1 distinct art unit for the pending portfolio. For a practitioner, this means that the prosecution strategy is entirely dependent on the review of SAMWEL, DANIEL within that 1 distinct art unit. This streamlined structure allows for a direct line of communication but also means that the outcome of the 1 pending office action will be determined by a single point of authority at the USPTO.
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.
