Csi Cells (Yangzhou) Co. Ltd. has 2 pending office actions in the Chemistry & Materials technology area. Both of these actions are being processed within 1 distinct art unit, indicating a very narrow technical focus for their current applications. The company is currently working with 1 distinct examiner for all of its pending matters.
CANNON, RYAN SMITH is the busiest examiner for the portfolio, managing 2 pending office actions. This means that all 2 pending office actions are consolidated under a single examiner and within 1 distinct art unit. This high level of concentration allows for a very focused and consistent interaction with the patent office for these 2 pending office actions. The company only needs to manage one examiner relationship and one set of technical standards to resolve its current workload in the Chemistry & Materials sector.
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.
