Craig Davis is currently overseeing 1 pending office action in the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering technology area. The prosecution for this portfolio is handled by 1 distinct examiner. This work is contained within 1 distinct art unit, indicating a specific focus for the current patent applications. The concentration in the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering field means that the applicant's current legal efforts are focused on a specific technical innovation or a closely related set of claims.
The examiner in charge of this matter is LARSON, JUSTIN MATTHEW, who is managing 1 pending office action. As the examiner involved, LARSON, JUSTIN MATTHEW is the primary point of contact for the applicant. The presence of 1 distinct examiner and 1 distinct art unit defines the prosecution strategy, as there is no requirement to manage different examiner behaviors or art unit guidelines. For a patent practitioner, this environment allows for a direct relationship with the patent office. The practitioner can tailor their responses specifically to the expectations of LARSON, JUSTIN MATTHEW. This structure reduces the administrative overhead and allows for a targeted approach to securing patent rights in the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering sector. The busiest examiner, LARSON, JUSTIN MATTHEW, has 1 pending office action, which represents the entirety of the current prosecution workload.
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.
