Jahwa Electronics Co. Ltd. currently has 3 pending office actions within the Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics technology area. All of these actions are concentrated within 1 distinct art unit, which may allow for a more consistent prosecution strategy regarding technical arguments and prior art. The company is working with 3 distinct examiners for these matters, indicating that each pending action is being reviewed by a different individual.
The busiest examiner for the portfolio is VU, PHU, who is responsible for 1 pending office action. Because there are 3 pending office actions and 3 distinct examiners, the workload is distributed with each examiner handling exactly 1 case. This lack of examiner overlap within the single art unit means that while the technical field is narrow, the company must still address the specific perspectives of 3 different officials. Practitioners can focus their efforts on the specific standards of the 1 distinct art unit while preparing for interactions with the 3 distinct examiners.
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 |
|---|---|
| §102 only | 2 (67%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 1 (33%) |
