Harman Becker Automotive Systems GmbH has 4 pending office actions in Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering. The actions involve 4 distinct examiners and 4 distinct art units, indicating complete dispersion across the listed examination assignments.
ROZANSKI, MICHAEL T is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. Since no examiner or art unit carries multiple listed actions, counsel should use matter-specific prosecution plans and avoid assuming that an argument effective in one assignment will transfer directly to another.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 1 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 (20%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 4 (80%) |
