CARREIRO, CAITLIN ANN is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. The workload is split between the listed examiners, making individual response planning and deadline control the primary prosecution tasks.
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.
