Creganna Unlimited Company has four pending office actions in Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering. The matters are distributed among four examiners and four art units, so the active portfolio spans multiple examination channels. WALLENHORST, MAUREEN is the busiest examiner, with one pending matter, and the profile does not identify a larger concentration around that examiner.
The spread of assignments makes coordinated but matter-specific prosecution important. Counsel should track separate examiner positions and art-unit requirements, particularly where related medical-device concepts may receive different treatment. The current data supports a distributed case-management approach, with no single examiner relationship serving as the clear center of the portfolio’s pending activity.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 1 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
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 |
|---|---|
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 4 (100%) |
