EOS GmbH Electro Optical Systems has 10 pending office actions in the Chemistry & Materials technology area. These 10 actions are distributed across 10 distinct examiners and distinct art units. SCHLEIS, DANIEL J is the busiest examiner, though he is responsible for only 1 pending office action.
The 10 pending office actions are spread across multiple units. With 1 action for the busiest examiner, the portfolio shows a highly diversified prosecution strategy where no individual is overloaded.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 1 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 |
|---|---|
| §101 + other | 3 (30%) |
| §103 only | 3 (30%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 4 (40%) |
How the docket's pending cases split across USPTO tech-center bands.
