Get-Grin Inc. has 4 pending office actions within the Communications technology area. The portfolio's current activity is spread across a corresponding number of distinct examiners and 4 distinct art units. This structure shows that every pending matter is being handled by a different individual in a different administrative unit, preventing any single examiner from dominating the company's prosecution experience and requiring a versatile legal approach.
MAHROUKA, WASSIM is listed as the busiest examiner with 1 pending office action. Since the total count of pending office actions is more than 1, this examiner's workload represents a portion of the company's active challenges. The presence of multiple art units suggests that the Communications filings cover a variety of sub-specialties, each requiring a tailored response to the specific examiner assigned. This diversity in assignment ensures that the company's success is not tied to the tendencies of a single unit.
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.
