DRNC Holdings Inc. currently manages 4 pending office actions in the Networking & Security technology area. These actions are distributed across 4 distinct examiners and 4 distinct art units. ROBINSON, TERRELL M is the busiest examiner for the company, with 1 pending office action. The portfolio is perfectly distributed, with each of the 4 pending office actions being handled by a different examiner.
This means there is no overlap in the personnel or the specialized USPTO groups reviewing the company networking and security applications. ROBINSON, TERRELL M is the busiest examiner only by default, as every examiner holds exactly 1 action. The prosecution strategy must be tailored to 4 different sets of examiner preferences and 4 different art unit standards. Practitioners must manage 4 separate relationships and sets of examiner preferences across the 4 distinct art units.
The lack of concentration under ROBINSON, TERRELL M means that no single examiner habits will dictate the outcome of the entire portfolio. Strategy should be focused on the individual requirements of each art unit within the Networking & Security area. The 4 pending office actions represent a set of challenges across the USPTO. Each application requires a unique approach tailored to the specific examiner and the technical standards of their respective art unit. The outcome of the 4 pending office actions will impact the company intellectual property standing.
