Dali Wireless Inc. currently manages 3 pending office actions within the Communications technology area. These actions are distributed among 3 distinct examiners, ensuring that no single examiner oversees more than one pending case. The prosecution activity is further divided across 2 distinct art units, indicating technical variation in the applications being pursued.
The busiest examiner, REGO, DOMINIC E, holds 1 busiest examiner pending action. Since there are 3 pending office actions and 3 distinct examiners, the portfolio experiences examiner diversity. The presence of 2 distinct art units means the practitioner must tailor arguments to the technical expectations of two different supervisory groups within the Communications field.
With 3 distinct examiners involved, the company must address 3 separate sets of examiner remarks. The technical divisions involved suggest that the portfolio spans different facets of Communications technology. Effective management of the 3 pending office actions will require a strategy that accounts for the 1 busiest examiner pending action while also addressing the other examiners.
