Inglass S P A has 2 pending office actions in Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering. The actions involve 2 distinct examiners and 2 distinct art units, creating separate examination paths for the listed matters.
REID, MICHAEL ROBERT is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. Counsel should focus on the individual records and can coordinate only at the level of shared technical terminology or portfolio oversight.
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.
