Genuine Inc. has 2 pending office actions in Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems. The matters are assigned to 2 distinct examiners and 2 distinct art units. LAKHANI, ANDREW C is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter.
The profile reflects two separate prosecution channels. Counsel can compare the records for consistent treatment of mechanical features and claim terminology, but each response should address the assigned examiner’s reasoning independently. There is no repeated examiner or art-unit assignment requiring a broader coordination program.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 2 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
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.
