Emil Boye Kromann currently manages 1 pending office action within the Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics technology area. This single active matter is assigned to 1 distinct examiner, XING, CHRISTINA ILONA, who is also identified as the busiest examiner for the portfolio. This concentration of work suggests a focused prosecution effort where a single individual oversees the entirety of the company's current interactions with the patent office. The examiner, XING, CHRISTINA ILONA, is responsible for 1 busiest examiner pending action, which represents the total volume of the company's current patent office activity.
The presence of 1 distinct art unit indicates that the portfolio's technical scope is currently confined to a specific technological niche. With 1 pending office action under the review of XING, CHRISTINA ILONA, the practitioner can expect a consistent examination style across the current docket. This alignment between the busiest examiner and the total pending office actions allows for a direct management of deadlines and examiner interviews for this specific portfolio. Because the portfolio involves 1 distinct examiner and 1 distinct art unit, the tracking of examiner-specific trends is restricted to the data associated with these single entities.
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.
