Jérémie Laurent currently has 1 pending office action within the Chemistry & Materials technology area. The prosecution of this portfolio is concentrated, featuring 1 distinct examiner and 1 distinct art unit. This indicates a very limited and specific scope of current activity at the patent office. For the applicant, this narrow focus means that the technical feedback is likely to be consistent, as it originates from a single administrative unit.
GORDON, BRIAN R is identified as the busiest examiner, responsible for 1 busiest examiner pending office action. This one action represents the total of 1 pending office action for the company. The presence of 1 distinct art unit confirms that all current examination is being conducted within a single administrative unit by this examiner. This concentration allows for a more direct and focused dialogue during the prosecution process, potentially simplifying the resolution of technical issues within the Chemistry & Materials sector.
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.
