Curioxr Inc. has 3 pending office actions in the Communications technology area. These 3 actions are assigned to 3 distinct examiners, meaning no examiner is handling more than one case for the company. The portfolio is divided between 2 distinct art units. Frank S Chen is the busiest examiner with 1 pending action.
This small portfolio shows a complete distribution of 3 cases across the assigned examiners. The involvement of 2 art units suggests that the communications technology is being reviewed by two different specialized groups within the office. Practitioners should focus on the individual styles of the 3 examiners while ensuring that the prosecution strategy remains consistent across the 2 art units. The lack of concentration among examiners means that the outcome of each case is independent of the others. This structure requires a tailored approach for each of the pending matters to address the specific feedback from the assigned examiners. The involvement of the art units ensures that the company's innovations are subject to multiple perspectives.
