KASS, BENJAMIN JOSEPH is the busiest examiner for this portfolio, with 1 pending office action under review. With 2 distinct examiners involved in only 2 pending actions, the company is not currently facing a bottleneck with any specific examiner. This distribution allows for independent prosecution paths for each of the pending matters, as each examiner will independently evaluate the merits of the respective applications.
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.
