Ifit Inc. has 10 pending office actions in Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering. Those matters involve 8 examiners across 4 art units, so the portfolio spans several examination settings while remaining concentrated within one technology area.
LETTERMAN, CATRINA A is the busiest examiner, with 3 pending matters. That assignment is the clearest point of recurring examiner exposure, although the remaining actions are distributed among other examiners. Prosecution planning should preserve matter-specific analysis while identifying arguments and claim amendments that can be used consistently across related mechanical and medical-device cases.
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.
| Bucket | Cases |
|---|---|
| §101 + other | 4 (36%) |
| §103 only | 1 (9%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 6 (55%) |
