Ei Electronics LLC D/B/A Electro Industries/Gauge Tech has 3 pending office actions in Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics. The matters are assigned to 3 distinct examiners and 3 distinct art units, showing that the current prosecution activity is distributed across separate examination assignments.
LE, JOHN H is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. The identified distribution does not place the portfolio’s activity with one examiner. Counsel should manage each application through its own examiner and art-unit record, while coordinating technical positions where the semiconductor, circuit, and optics subject matter overlaps.
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.
