Kaeser Kompressoren SE is currently managing 2 pending office actions within the Computing & Software technology area. These actions are assigned to 2 distinct examiners, so each pending matter is being reviewed by a different individual. However, both actions are located within 1 distinct art unit, which suggests a unified technical focus for the company's current patent efforts in the computing and software sector.
The busiest examiner for this portfolio is CHOI, JASON JUNSOO, who is responsible for 1 pending office action. Since there are 2 pending office actions in total, the workload is split between CHOI, JASON JUNSOO and the other distinct examiner. This distribution requires the applicant to address different examiner styles while operating within the same technical framework of 1 distinct art unit. This concentration can help in maintaining a consistent procedural approach for both filings.
With 2 pending office actions and 2 distinct examiners, the company has a manageable prosecution workload. The fact that both examiners are in a single art unit is beneficial, as it likely means they follow similar procedural rules and technical standards within the Computing & Software field. Practitioners can focus on the specific feedback from CHOI, JASON JUNSOO and his colleague to advance these filings. This environment allows for a clear and targeted approach to securing patent rights.
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 |
|---|---|
| §101 only | 1 (33%) |
| §101 + other | 1 (33%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 1 (33%) |
