Dellner Couplers AB has 2 pending office actions in the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems technology area. These actions are distributed across 2 distinct examiners. All prosecution activity is currently concentrated in 1 distinct art unit, indicating a unified technical classification for the pending applications. This focus within 1 distinct art unit allows the applicant to navigate a single set of art unit-level practices while addressing the 2 pending office actions, which can improve the consistency of the prosecution results.
The busiest examiner, BARZEGAR, PEGAH, is responsible for 1 pending office action. This represents one of the 2 total pending office actions. With 2 distinct examiners assigned to the 2 actions, the workload is evenly split, though both examiners operate within the same 1 distinct art unit. The busiest examiner pending count of 1 shows that no single individual is managing more than one case. Practitioners should coordinate their efforts across the 2 distinct examiners to ensure a cohesive strategy within the shared art unit, as different examiners may have varying interpretations of the same technical field.
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.
