Jusung Engineering Co., Ltd. has 18 pending office actions in Chemistry & Materials. The matters involve 16 distinct examiners across 10 distinct art units, indicating broad distribution with some repeated examiner and technical assignments.
CHEN, KEATH T is the busiest examiner, with 3 pending matters. That concentration supports targeted review of recurring treatment, while the remaining cases call for separate analysis. Counsel should align materials terminology and specification support across the art units, then tailor claim amendments and prior-art arguments to the examiner handling each application.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 6 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
Every pending office action with a known statutory deadline, placed on a days-until-due axis. Dots left of Today are overdue; the further right, the more runway. Cases that share a deadline window stack vertically. 6 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date.
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.
| Bucket | Cases |
|---|---|
| §103 only | 10 (62%) |
| §112 only | 1 (6%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 5 (31%) |
