Face International Corporation currently has 2 pending office actions in its patent portfolio. These actions are handled by 2 distinct examiners, indicating that each pending matter is under the review of a different individual at the USPTO.
SHEEBA AHMED is identified as the busiest examiner for the portfolio, with 1 pending office action. This workload is shared equally across the 2 distinct examiners, as each is responsible for 1 of the 2 total pending office actions.
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.
