Keiwa Incorporated maintains 2 pending office actions in the Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics technology area. These actions are distributed across 2 distinct examiners and distinct art units, showing a diversified approach even within a small pending portfolio. This distribution prevents any individual examiner from controlling the entire pending pipeline.
The busiest examiner, GREEN, TRACIE Y, is currently handling 1 pending office action. With 2 distinct examiners involved, the company must manage separate prosecution tracks simultaneously. This structure requires the applicant to address feedback from the art units within the semiconductor field.
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.
