Energizer Auto Inc. is managing 5 pending office actions in the Chemistry & Materials technology area. These 5 actions are distributed among 5 distinct examiners, meaning no two cases share the same reviewer. These examiners are located within 3 distinct art units, showing a moderate level of technical concentration for the company's filings.
The busiest examiner, DELCOTTO, GREGORY R, is responsible for 1 pending office action. Since there are 5 pending office actions and 5 distinct examiners, each examiner is handling exactly 1 case. The distribution across 3 distinct art units suggests that the company's Chemistry & Materials applications are being categorized into a few specialized areas. With 5 pending office actions and 5 distinct examiners, the company benefits from a variety of perspectives during the examination of its Chemistry & Materials technology.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 2 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
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 |
|---|---|
| §103 only | 1 (20%) |
| Double-patenting + other | 1 (20%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 3 (60%) |
