Jong-Youb Kim currently has 1 pending office action in the Chemistry & Materials technology area. This activity is confined to 1 distinct examiner and 1 distinct art unit. The prosecution is not distributed across multiple areas of the patent office.
GRUSBY, REBECCA LYNN is the busiest examiner with 1 pending office action. Since the busiest examiner pending count is 1, this examiner handles the entirety of the current pending workload. Practitioners should focus on the specific examiner's history within this 1 distinct art unit to guide the prosecution of this single matter.
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.
