Institut National de la Recherche Scientifique is currently managing 5 pending office actions within the Biotechnology & Pharmaceuticals technology area. These actions are distributed across 5 distinct examiners, meaning no single examiner is handling more than one matter. This workload is further divided into 2 distinct art units.
ALSOMIRI, ISAM A is the busiest examiner for the portfolio, with 1 pending office action. This represents a portion of the 5 total pending office actions. The use of the distinct examiners across 2 distinct art units shows that the company's Biotechnology & Pharmaceuticals filings are receiving attention from multiple specialized reviewers within the patent office.
The distribution of the actions across the examiners ensures a variety of feedback. ALSOMIRI, ISAM A is one of the five individuals currently assigned to the company's matters. The focus within the Biotechnology & Pharmaceuticals area is maintained even as the prosecution is spread across the distinct art units.
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 |
|---|---|
| §103 only | 3 (50%) |
| §112 only | 1 (17%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 2 (33%) |
How the docket's pending cases split across USPTO tech-center bands.
