Hunter Industries Inc. has 2 pending office actions currently active in its patent portfolio. These actions are assigned to 2 distinct examiners, meaning each examiner is handling a case. The busiest examiner for the company is CHAN, WEI, who is responsible for 1 pending office action.
With 2 pending office actions and 2 distinct examiners, the company's prosecution workload is evenly split. This distribution means that the company is interacting with two different individuals at the patent office, each with their own examination style. There is no concentration of cases with a single examiner, as both CHAN, WEI and the other distinct examiner have an equal share of the pending workload. This profile indicates a balanced but limited amount of active prosecution activity.
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 (50%) |
| §102 only | 1 (50%) |
