This active matter is assigned to 1 distinct examiner working within 1 distinct art unit. The concentration of work indicates a focused prosecution effort for the company's current portfolio.

This individual accounts for the entirety of the company's current 1 pending office action. Practitioners can focus their strategy on the specific preferences of this examiner.
