Kyoobe Tech GmbH currently faces 5 pending office actions within the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering technology area. These matters are being handled by 5 distinct examiners, which suggests a broad distribution of the company's intellectual property across different individuals at the USPTO. However, these examiners are situated within only 2 distinct art units, indicating that while the individuals vary, the technical focus remains concentrated in specific regulatory groups.
The busiest examiner for this portfolio is ABDELSALAM, FATHI KAMAL, who is responsible for 1 pending office action. Given that there are 5 pending office actions in total, the workload is spread such that each individual is currently managing exactly one action. This even distribution means that the prosecution strategy must be adaptable to the specific preferences of five different people.
The concentration of the workload within just 2 distinct art units is a distinctive characteristic of this portfolio. It implies that while the company is interacting with 5 distinct examiners, including ABDELSALAM, FATHI KAMAL, the technical standards of these specific groups will be the primary drivers for resolving the active matters. Practitioners should focus on the precedents of these two units to ensure consistency across the five pending matters.
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.
| Bucket | Cases |
|---|---|
| §102 only | 1 (20%) |
| Double-patenting + other | 1 (20%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 3 (60%) |
