Dreamwell Ltd. currently has 2 pending office actions within the Chemistry & Materials technology area. These 2 pending office actions are being reviewed by 2 distinct examiners, which means each application is receiving independent oversight. This distribution is mirrored in the art unit data, as the portfolio is active across 2 distinct art units. For a practitioner, this means that the 2 pending office actions are not only being handled by different individuals but are also subject to the potentially different procedural norms of 2 distinct art units.
The busiest examiner for Dreamwell Ltd. is DIAZ, MATTHEW R, who is responsible for 1 busiest examiner pending action. Given that there are 2 pending office actions and 2 distinct examiners, DIAZ, MATTHEW R is handling exactly half of the current pending workload. The presence of 2 distinct art units for only 2 pending office actions suggests a lack of concentration in the USPTO's internal filing structure for this Chemistry & Materials portfolio. Practitioners must be prepared to manage 2 distinct examiners across 2 distinct art units, ensuring that the strategy for each of the 2 pending office actions is tailored to its specific examiner and art unit environment. This balanced distribution across 2 distinct examiners and 2 distinct art units requires a versatile approach to prosecution.
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 |
|---|---|
| §103 only | 1 (50%) |
