Countable Labs Inc. has 2 pending office actions in Chemistry & Materials. The matters are concentrated with 1 distinct examiner in 1 distinct art unit, indicating a single examination channel for the current workload.
XU, XIAOYUN is the busiest examiner, with 2 pending matters. Because that figure matches the portfolio’s pending office actions, prosecution attention is centered entirely on this examiner. Counsel can therefore focus status review and response planning on one examination record and one art unit.
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.
