2 pending office actions • 2 art units • 2 examiners • 0 of 2 (0%) have an AI response strategy ready
Global Algae Technology LLC currently manages 2 pending office actions within the Biotechnology & Pharmaceuticals technology area. This portfolio is distributed across 2 distinct art units, indicating a narrow but specialized focus for its current prosecution activities. The workload is handled by 2 distinct examiners, ensuring that each examiner is responsible for a limited portion of the active docket.
The busiest examiner for the company is WILLIAMS, EMMALEE RAE, who is responsible for 1 pending office action. This assignment covers 1 of the 2 pending office actions for the firm. The distribution between the 2 distinct examiners suggests a decentralized prosecution process where no single official oversees all pending matters. Because the portfolio involves 2 distinct art units, the company must navigate different internal policies or examination standards 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 |
|---|---|
| §102 only | 1 (50%) |
