Freedom Photonics LLC has 1 pending office action currently active in its patent portfolio. This prosecution involves 1 distinct examiner, showing a concentrated effort on a single patent matter. The busiest examiner for the company is HUGHES, DEANDRA M, who is currently handling 1 busiest examiner pending action.
Because there is only 1 pending office action, the company's current interaction with the patent office is limited to a single front. The involvement of 1 distinct examiner suggests that the prosecution team can focus its resources on a specific set of examiner preferences. This simplicity in the portfolio structure minimizes the risk of conflicting strategies across various applications.
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.
