Gharda Chemicals Limited has 2 pending office actions currently active. These matters are distributed among 2 distinct examiners, ensuring that no single individual is reviewing more than 1 application for the company at this time.
COHEN, MICHAEL P is the busiest examiner for the portfolio with 1 pending office action. Because there are 2 distinct examiners for the 2 pending office actions, the prosecution workload is dispersed, requiring the company to manage separate examiner relationships simultaneously.
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 | 1 (50%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 1 (50%) |
