Gacw Incorporated has 5 pending office actions in Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems. The matters are assigned to 4 distinct examiners but remain within 1 art unit, indicating that technical classification is concentrated even though examiner handling is not fully centralized.
CHOI, TAEKWON NMN is the busiest examiner, with 2 pending matters. The remaining examiner assignments account for the other matters, so counsel should distinguish art-unit-wide practice from Choi-specific examination patterns when preparing responses and managing deadlines.
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 |
|---|---|
| §103 only | 2 (40%) |
| Double-patenting + other | 1 (20%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 2 (40%) |
