2 pending office actions • 2 art units • 2 examiners • 0 of 2 (0%) have an AI response strategy ready
Julius Zorn GmbH has 2 pending office actions within the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering technology area. These actions are distributed across 2 distinct art units, showing that each matter is being evaluated in a different technical context. The portfolio involves 2 distinct examiners, so each of the 2 pending office actions is handled by a different individual.
The busiest examiner, MUROMOTO JR, ROBERT H, is responsible for 1 pending office action. This represents half of the total 2 pending office actions, with the other half assigned to another examiner. Because there are 2 distinct art units and 2 distinct examiners involved, the company must manage two separate prosecution tracks within the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering field. This decentralized arrangement requires a flexible approach to meet the specific technical and procedural requirements of each individual examiner and art unit currently on the docket.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 1 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.
