Inkspace Imaging Inc. is currently engaged in the Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics technology area. The company has 1 pending office action in its patent portfolio. This action is being examined within 1 distinct art unit. This alignment indicates that the company's current pending innovation falls into a specific technical category within the semiconductors and optics field, allowing for a concentrated prosecution effort.
The examination is being conducted by 1 distinct examiner. MCANDREW, CHRISTOPHER P is the busiest examiner for the portfolio, responsible for 1 busiest examiner pending office action. Because there is only 1 pending office action, this examiner is the sole individual the company must interact with for its current pending matters. This centralized prosecution, involving only 1 distinct examiner and 1 distinct art unit, allows the company to tailor its strategy specifically to the feedback and preferences of a single point of contact at the patent office for its imaging technology.
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.
