Dna Genotek Inc. has 5 pending office actions in Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering. The matters involve 5 examiners and 4 art units, indicating broad examiner coverage with some art-unit overlap.
FARDANESH, MARJAN is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. No examiner carries multiple actions, so counsel should organize prosecution by individual examiner while using the shared art-unit assignments to identify possible recurring technical issues.
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 | 1 (17%) |
| §103 only | 1 (17%) |
| §112 only | 1 (17%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 3 (50%) |
How the docket's pending cases split across USPTO tech-center bands.
