Hawkes Design And Consulting LLC has 2 pending office actions in the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems technology area. Both actions are assigned to 1 distinct examiner, TRAN, PHI DIEU, within 1 distinct art unit. As the busiest examiner with 2 pending actions, TRAN, PHI DIEU is responsible for the company's entire active portfolio.
This concentration within a single examiner and art unit suggests a focused prosecution path. For a practitioner, this means that the relationship with TRAN, PHI DIEU is critical, as this one individual handles all 2 pending actions. The fact that both cases are in 1 art unit implies that the subject matter is consistent. This allows the applicant to use a unified strategy across the portfolio, but it also means that a single decision in that 1 art unit could affect all 2 pending matters 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.
