Gustomsc B V currently has 3 pending office actions in the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems technology area. These 3 actions are assigned to 3 distinct examiners. The portfolio is spread across 2 distinct art units, indicating a relatively narrow technical focus for the company's current pending matters.
SOTO, HENRIX is the busiest examiner for the company, with 1 pending office action. Since there are 3 actions and 3 examiners, every examiner involved with the portfolio currently has exactly one pending matter. This distribution shows a lack of examiner concentration despite the number of pending actions. With 3 distinct examiners working across only 2 distinct art units, the company is interacting with multiple individuals in at least one of those units. This requires a strategy that can adapt to different examiner styles even when the technical subject matter is concentrated within the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems field.
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 |
|---|---|
| §112 only | 1 (50%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 1 (50%) |
