EDUN, DEAN NAWAAB is the busiest examiner, currently managing 1 pending office action.
The pending office actions are not concentrated under the same individual, as the company utilizes distinct examiners. This distribution across distinct art units may involve different examination standards. EDUN, DEAN NAWAAB is responsible for the 1 busiest examiner pending action currently on record. This structure indicates that the company's pending office actions are divided across its examiners.
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.
