Inflexion Point Technologies LLC has 2 pending office actions in the Chemistry & Materials technology area. These actions are handled by 2 distinct examiners and 2 distinct art units. This distribution shows that each of the 2 pending office actions is being reviewed in a separate administrative and technical context. There is no overlap between the 2 distinct examiners or the 2 distinct art units for the company's current workload.
LOUIE, MANDY C is the busiest examiner for the portfolio, with 1 busiest examiner pending office action. This single action represents half of the 2 pending office actions currently active for the company. The other half is managed by the second of the 2 distinct examiners. This decentralized structure means that the company's 2 pending office actions are subject to the independent review of two different USPTO officials in two different departments.
A practitioner must manage 2 distinct examiners across 2 distinct art units, which requires a case-by-case approach to each of the 2 pending office actions. Because the matters are in different art units, the technical standards applied to the Chemistry & Materials filings may vary. Ensuring that the 2 distinct examiners receive consistent information while addressing the specific requirements of their respective 2 distinct art units is a key challenge for this portfolio.
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.
