YENKE, BRIAN P is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. The absence of repeated examiner assignments places emphasis on matter-by-matter prosecution management and on maintaining consistent claim strategy across separate examination teams.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 2 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
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.
| Bucket | Cases |
|---|---|
| §101 + other | 2 (18%) |
| §103 only | 6 (55%) |
| §112 only | 1 (9%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 2 (18%) |
