With 1 pending office action and 1 distinct examiner, the prosecution focus is entirely on this matter. The matching counts of 1 examiner, 1 art unit, and 1 action mean that the company's current USPTO activity is centralized. Practitioners only need to address the specific requirements of the assigned examiner within that art unit to move the case forward. This scope of pending activity reduces the complexity of managing multiple deadlines or different examiner requirements across the Communications sector. The art unit assignment provides a technical framework for the pending case.
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.
