HP Health Solutions Inc. has 3 pending office actions in Chemistry & Materials. The matters involve 3 distinct examiners but only 2 distinct art units, so at least one art unit handles more than one current matter while examiner assignments remain separate.
COLENA, TRACY CHING-TIAN is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. The art-unit overlap may make art-unit-specific practice and recurring technical issues useful subjects for review. At the same time, the separate examiner assignments counsel against treating all responses as governed by one examiner’s preferences or prosecution history.
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.
