Element Farms Inc. has 2 pending office actions in its company patent portfolio. These actions fall under the Chemistry & Materials technology area. There are 2 distinct examiners assigned to these matters, meaning each pending action is handled by a different person. These examiners are located in 2 distinct art units, showing a separation of technical review for each action.
SARANTAKOS, KAYLA ROSE is the busiest examiner for the portfolio, currently managing 1 pending action. With 2 pending office actions and 2 distinct examiners, the workload is split evenly. This structure means that the 2 distinct art units each contain one of the portfolio's active matters. The presence of 2 distinct art units for only 2 pending office actions suggests that the company's chemistry-related filings are technically diverse.
Practitioners will work with 2 distinct examiners, including SARANTAKOS, KAYLA ROSE, who each oversee 1 pending action. This arrangement ensures that each of the 2 pending office actions is reviewed within a different specialized group. The 2 distinct examiners provide independent oversight for the company's current activities in the Chemistry & Materials sector.
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.
