2 pending office actions • 1 art units • 2 examiners • 0 of 2 (0%) have an AI response strategy ready
Jasper Medtech Pty Ltd. has 2 pending office actions concentrated in the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering technology area. These matters are distributed across 2 distinct examiners, though they are both located within 1 distinct art unit. This concentration in a single art unit indicates a consistent examination environment despite the involvement of different personnel, which may lead to more predictable procedural outcomes.
ABOUELELA, MAY A is the busiest examiner for the portfolio, with 1 pending office action under review. This accounts for a portion of the active matters currently facing the company. The distribution of examiners for these actions suggests that each individual is managing a single matter, requiring the applicant to navigate the specific preferences of different people. Because both examiners operate within the same Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering field, the company may encounter similar prior art and legal interpretations across both cases.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 2 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
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.
