Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency has 6 pending office actions in Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems. The matters involve 6 distinct examiners and 5 distinct art units, indicating examiner-level dispersion with some art-unit overlap.
GMOSER, WILLIAM L is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. Because no examiner carries more than the stated single matter, portfolio oversight should prioritize consistent claim analysis and deadlines across the separate prosecution paths.
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 |
|---|---|
| §101 only | 1 (14%) |
| §103 only | 3 (43%) |
| §112 only | 1 (14%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 2 (29%) |
