Gaocheng Electronics Co. Ltd. has 1 pending office action within the Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics technology area. This single matter is assigned to 1 distinct examiner and 1 distinct art unit. The concentration of the portfolio suggests a highly specific technical focus for the company's current patenting efforts. The alignment of 1 examiner across 1 art unit for this action provides a very clear view of the company's current legal standing.
The busiest examiner for this portfolio is JIMENEZ, ANTHONY R, who is responsible for 1 busiest examiner pending action. Because the total number of pending actions is 1, this examiner handles the entirety of the company's active prosecution before the office. Practitioners should note that the prosecution strategy is currently centralized under a single individual. The lack of variety in examiners and art units suggests a streamlined but singular point of contact with the patent office.
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.
