Hunan Brunp Recycling Technology Co. Ltd. has 2 pending office actions in the Chemistry & Materials technology area. These 2 actions are being reviewed by 2 distinct examiners, ensuring that each case has a unique reviewer.
Despite the involvement of 2 examiners, the portfolio is concentrated within 1 distinct art unit. SPEER, JOSHUA MAXWELL is the busiest examiner with 1 pending office action, meaning the other pending case is assigned to another examiner. This concentration in 1 distinct art unit suggests a narrow technical focus for the current pending work.
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.
