Framatome has 7 pending office actions in Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems. The matters are distributed across 5 examiners and 4 art units, indicating a portfolio with repeated assignments in both examination personnel and technical units.
KIL, JINNEY is the busiest examiner, with 3 pending matters. That examiner-specific concentration supports a dedicated review of common objections and claim positions, while the remaining matters require coordination across the other assignments.
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 | 1 (14%) |
| §103 only | 1 (14%) |
| §112 only | 1 (14%) |
| Double-patenting + other | 1 (14%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 3 (43%) |
