Juke Audio Inc. has 2 pending office actions in Computing & Software. The matters are assigned to 2 distinct examiners and 2 distinct art units, creating separate prosecution paths within the software and computing classification. Counsel should maintain consistent terminology for system architecture and functionality while tailoring claim amendments to each examination record.
KHUU, HIEN DIEU THI is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. The examiner handles only part of the identified docket, so portfolio management should account for examiner variation rather than assume a uniform approach. Clear explanation of software operations, data relationships, and supported system functionality can help keep responses technically focused.
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.
