Corindus Inc. has 10 pending office actions in Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering. The matters involve 10 distinct examiners across 8 distinct art units. The examiner distribution is fully dispersed, while the art-unit distribution includes repeated assignments.
TON, MARTIN TRUYEN is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. No examiner accounts for more than one listed matter, so counsel should maintain separate examiner strategies across the portfolio. The repeated art-unit assignments allow comparison of claim treatment and cited art within related examination settings.
A centralized docket and amendment history can help coordinate medical-device claim positions across the active matters. It should also preserve the distinctions among the individual records, since examiner-specific treatment cannot be inferred from the portfolio-level distribution.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 4 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
Every pending office action with a known statutory deadline, placed on a days-until-due axis. Dots left of Today are overdue; the further right, the more runway. Cases that share a deadline window stack vertically. 4 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date.
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 (11%) |
| §103 only | 1 (11%) |
| §102 only | 1 (11%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 5 (56%) |
| No statute on record | 1 (11%) |
