Corebon AB maintains a company patent portfolio in the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering technology area. The portfolio currently includes 1 pending office action. This single action is the only active matter requiring a response from the applicant at this time.
The examination of these assets is limited to 1 distinct art unit and 1 distinct examiner. With 1 pending office action assigned to 1 examiner, the prosecution landscape is currently very narrow. This concentration means that the company's immediate patent outcomes are tied to a single technical review stream.
CHEN, SIMPSON ABRAHAM is the busiest examiner for the portfolio, with 1 busiest examiner pending office action. This examiner is the only one currently interacting with the company's patent filings. Success in the 1 distinct art unit involved will depend on the specific examination criteria applied by this busiest examiner.
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.
