Electric Hydrogen Co. currently has 3 pending office actions. These actions are distributed among 3 distinct examiners, meaning each examiner is responsible for a single matter. The busiest examiner, WILKINS III, HARRY D, is handling 1 pending office action. This distribution between actions and examiners suggests a diverse range of review even within a small portfolio. Practitioners must coordinate with 3 different individuals to advance these pending applications, as no single examiner manages more than 1 action. The presence of 3 pending office actions requires a multi-faceted approach to resolve each examiner's unique requirements.
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 |
|---|---|
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 3 (100%) |
