DONGGUAN PINJIA TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD. holds a patent portfolio in the Chemistry & Materials technology area. The company currently has pending office actions distributed across 2 distinct examiners, which shows that each matter is being reviewed by a different individual. The prosecution activity is spread across 2 distinct art units, indicating that the company's applications in the Chemistry & Materials sector are being evaluated by different technical groups.
The busiest examiner is GROSS, CARSON, who is managing 1 pending office action. This distribution shows that each of the distinct examiners is handling exactly one of the company's pending matters. By having filings in 2 distinct art units, the company faces a diversified examination process. This structure ensures that the pending office actions are not concentrated under a single examiner or art unit, spreading the prosecution risk across different areas of the Chemistry & Materials field. The 1 pending office action assigned to GROSS, CARSON represents a portion of the current workload.
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.
