This action is assigned to 1 distinct examiner, which centralizes the current prosecution process. The matter is located in 1 distinct art unit, indicating that the pending technology is categorized within a specific chemical or material science discipline. This focused placement requires a deep understanding of the specific examination guidelines prevalent in that art unit.
The busiest examiner for this portfolio is PEO, JONATHAN M, who is currently managing 1 pending office action. This examiner is responsible for the only active office action in the company's current USPTO profile.
