Exedy Corporation has 9 pending office actions in Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems. The matters span 7 examiners and 4 art units, showing examiner diversity within a relatively concentrated technical structure.
HALL, ZACHARY A is the busiest examiner, with 2 pending matters. Counsel can coordinate those matters, but the remaining assignments require separate examiner-specific preparation. Art-unit monitoring may help identify shared technical issues across the portfolio.
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 | 2 (22%) |
| §102 only | 1 (11%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 6 (67%) |
