Lavanya Kundurthy currently has 1 pending office action in the Biotechnology & Pharmaceuticals technology area. This action is being reviewed by 1 distinct examiner, KLINKEL, KORTNEY L, within a distinct art unit. KLINKEL, KORTNEY L is the busiest examiner for the portfolio, managing 1 pending action.
This indicates that the current prosecution is entirely centralized. Practitioners can focus their strategy for the pending office action on the individual review style of KLINKEL, KORTNEY L. The presence of a single art unit suggests a narrow technical focus within the Biotechnology & Pharmaceuticals field. This streamlined arrangement simplifies the management of the 1 pending office action. The alignment of the busiest examiner's workload with the total pending actions ensures a clear point of contact within the patent office. This concentration allows for a highly targeted approach to the pending office action. The lack of multiple examiners or art units minimizes the complexity of managing the company's current patent interests. By focusing on the individual review style of the assigned examiner, the company can better anticipate procedural hurdles.
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.
