Giffin Tec Inc. currently manages 1 pending office action in the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering technology area. This action is assigned to 1 distinct examiner and is located in 1 distinct art unit, representing a very focused point of contact with the USPTO. This profile indicates that the company's current active prosecution is limited to a single technical matter within the medical devices and mechanical engineering sector.
The busiest examiner for this portfolio is LARSON, JUSTIN MATTHEW, who is responsible for 1 pending office action. Since the busiest examiner pending count of 1 matches the total pending office actions, the company's immediate patent prospects are entirely dependent on the review of this one individual. There are no other active matters to provide a comparison or to diversify the company's interactions with the USPTO staff at this time.
For a practitioner, the alignment of 1 distinct examiner and 1 distinct art unit means that the prosecution strategy must be highly targeted toward the expectations of LARSON, JUSTIN MATTHEW. The success of the 1 pending office action is critical for the portfolio's progress in the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering field. Practitioners must rely on the specific feedback from this examiner to guide the company's intellectual property strategy and move the matter toward allowance.
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.
