Emaginos Inc. is currently managing 1 pending office action within the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering technology area. This single action is assigned to 1 distinct examiner, MUSSELMAN, TIMOTHY A, who is the busiest examiner for the portfolio with 1 pending action. The prosecution is limited to 1 distinct art unit, indicating a narrow technical focus for the company's current medical device-related intellectual property efforts.
The presence of 1 pending office action means that the company's current workload at the patent office is focused on a single case. MUSSELMAN, TIMOTHY A is the sole examiner responsible for this 1 pending action, making the relationship with this individual critical for the portfolio's immediate progress. Since the case is in 1 distinct art unit, the company only needs to navigate the specific procedural environment of that single unit. This concentrated activity allows for a very targeted approach to resolving the 1 outstanding office action.
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.
