Good Rv Equipment Inc. is currently handling 3 pending office actions within the Chemistry & Materials technology area. These actions are distributed across 3 distinct examiners and 3 distinct art units, meaning every pending matter is being reviewed by a different person in a different administrative unit. This represents a high level of diversification for a portfolio with 3 pending office actions. Such a spread suggests that the company's technology touches on several different technical sub-fields.
CHRISTOPHER W RAIMUND is the busiest examiner for the company, with 1 busiest examiner pending office action. This examiner is responsible for a portion of the 3 pending office actions, with the other actions assigned to the remaining 3 distinct examiners. No single examiner holds a majority of the company's active workload, which distributes the risk across multiple individuals. This structure requires the company to maintain multiple lines of communication with the USPTO.
The involvement of 3 distinct art units suggests that the company's technology is being examined under different sets of technical guidelines. With 3 distinct examiners, the company must manage separate prosecution styles and timelines. Addressing the 3 pending office actions will require a unique approach for each examiner, including CHRISTOPHER W RAIMUND. Practitioners must be diligent in tracking the specific requirements of all 3 distinct art units to ensure overall portfolio success.
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.
| Bucket | Cases |
|---|---|
| §103 only | 1 (33%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 2 (67%) |
