Ictk Co. Ltd. is managing 3 pending office actions in the Networking & Security technology area. These actions are distributed across 3 distinct examiners and 3 distinct art units, showing no overlap in personnel or administrative groups. The busiest examiner for the company is CARTER, AARON W, who holds 1 pending action.
The involvement of 3 distinct art units for only 3 pending actions suggests that the company's security-related applications cover diverse technical sub-fields. This lack of concentration requires the applicant to manage separate prosecution tracks for each of the 3 pending office actions. Each matter is being handled in a unique administrative context by a different examiner.
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 (33%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 2 (67%) |
