Technology area: Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering
2 pending office actions • 1 art units • 2 examiners • 0 of 2 (0%) have an AI response strategy ready
Elements Endoscopy Inc. currently manages 2 pending office actions. These matters are located within the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering technology area. The portfolio is assigned to 1 distinct art unit, indicating a very specific technical focus for the company's current applications. Prosecution is handled by 2 distinct examiners. WOO, JAE KYUN is the busiest examiner, holding 1 busiest examiner pending action.
This means that each of the 2 pending office actions is being reviewed by a different examiner, despite both cases being in the same 1 distinct art unit. The concentration in 1 distinct art unit within the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering field allows for a consistent technical approach. However, because there are 2 distinct examiners, practitioners must still account for two different individual perspectives. The 1 busiest examiner pending action for WOO, JAE KYUN shows that the workload is evenly split between the 2 distinct examiners. This structure requires a strategy that is technically unified but examiner-specific.
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 |
|---|---|
| Double-patenting + other | 1 (50%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 1 (50%) |
