Korea Railroad Research Institute has 4 pending office actions in Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems. The matters involve 3 distinct examiners and 3 distinct art units, indicating one repeated examiner relationship and one repeated art-unit relationship.
BARZEGAR, PEGAH is the busiest examiner, with 2 pending matters. Counsel should review those related matters together for consistent technical and claim positions, while separately managing the other assignments.
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.

|---|---|
| §101 + other | 1 (25%) |
| §103 only | 2 (50%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 1 (25%) |
