Inosystems has 3 pending office actions in Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering. The actions involve 3 distinct examiners within 1 distinct art unit, making examiner coordination important even though the technical assignment is shared.
DIXON, ANNETTE FREDRICKA is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending action. Counsel can use the common art-unit setting to identify recurring issues while tailoring responses to each 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 |
|---|---|
| Double-patenting + other | 1 (25%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 3 (75%) |
