Kaetel Systems GmbH currently has 1 pending office action in the Communications technology area. This action is assigned to 1 distinct examiner and 1 distinct art unit. The focus on this technology area defines the company's current patenting efforts and its strategic technical direction.
The busiest examiner, KURR, JASON R, is responsible for 1 pending office action. This single action represents the total of 1 pending office action for the company. The prosecution is currently limited to a single examiner and a single art unit, which simplifies the oversight of the company's intellectual property.
With only 1 distinct examiner involved, the outcome of the 1 pending office action depends on the review by KURR, JASON R. The presence of 1 distinct art unit within the Communications field suggests a specialized examination process. This concentration allows the applicant to maintain a very direct and focused dialogue with the patent office on the current filing.
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.
