Giesecke+Devrient Advance52 GmbH has 13 pending office actions in the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems technology area. These actions are distributed among 12 distinct examiners and 6 distinct art units. LOZA, Janice Jomarie is the busiest examiner, currently handling 2 busiest examiner pending actions. The 6 distinct art units suggest that the company's innovations in e-commerce and mechanical systems are spread across several technical groups.
With 12 distinct examiners for the 13 pending office actions, nearly every case is being reviewed by a unique individual. This distribution requires managing 12 different examiner relationships to resolve the 13 pending office actions. The 2 busiest examiner pending actions assigned to LOZA, Janice Jomarie represent a portion of the total workload. Practitioners should focus on the specific preferences of each examiner to ensure successful outcomes.
The 6 distinct art units indicate that the portfolio touches on several specialized groups within the USPTO. Managing 13 pending office actions across these units requires an understanding of the specific technical standards applied by each group. Because the 12 distinct examiners are spread across 6 distinct art units, there is variety in the technical scrutiny applied to the applications. This structure requires a strategy that accounts for both individual examiner preferences and art unit trends.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 4 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
Every pending office action with a known statutory deadline, placed on a days-until-due axis. Dots left of Today are overdue; the further right, the more runway. Cases that share a deadline window stack vertically. 4 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date.
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.

|---|---|
| §101 + other | 12 (80%) |
| §103 only | 1 (7%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 2 (13%) |
