Ds2 0 LLC has 3 pending office actions in the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems technology area. These actions are handled by 3 distinct examiners, including SHAIKH, FARIS ASIM, who is the busiest examiner with 1 pending office action. The 3 pending office actions are distributed across 2 distinct art units.
With 3 distinct examiners for the actions, every pending matter is under the review of a different individual. SHAIKH, FARIS ASIM manages 1 of the total pending actions, showing a lack of examiner concentration. The 2 distinct art units indicate that the actions are somewhat concentrated technically, though they still require interaction with multiple examining groups. This distribution means the company must navigate different examiner styles across 2 different art units.
