Dmg Mori Co., Ltd. has 20 pending office actions in Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering. The portfolio spans 20 distinct examiners and 15 distinct art units, indicating broad examiner dispersion across a smaller set of technical groupings. This structure calls for coordinated docket oversight without assuming that one examiner’s approach represents the portfolio as a whole.
TRAC, JONATHAN KHANH is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. Counsel should organize prosecution by application and art unit, while using shared technical themes to support consistent claim drafting where the records justify it.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 5 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
Every pending office action with a known statutory deadline, placed on a days-until-due axis. Dots left of Today are overdue; the further right, the more runway. Cases that share a deadline window stack vertically. 5 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date.
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 (10%) |
| §103 only | 7 (35%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 11 (55%) |
