2 pending office actions • 1 art units • 1 examiners • 0 of 2 (0%) have an AI response strategy ready
Duynie Holding B V is currently managing 2 pending office actions in the Chemistry & Materials technology area. In a notable concentration of resources, these actions are all assigned to 1 distinct examiner and 1 distinct art unit. This centralization suggests that the company's current pending matters are closely related in subject matter and are being evaluated through a single administrative channel.
The busiest examiner, SHELLHAMMER, JAMES PAUL, is responsible for 2 pending office actions. For the applicant, this means that the prosecution of the entire pending portfolio is subject to the specific interpretations and prior art searches of this one individual. While this allows for a consistent dialogue with the patent office, it also means that the 2 pending office actions are dependent on the examiner's unique perspective within that 1 distinct art unit. This arrangement simplifies communication but increases reliance on a single examiner's discretion.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 1 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.
