Liko Research & Development AB has 2 pending office actions within the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems technology area. These matters are handled by 2 distinct examiners. The portfolio is concentrated in 1 distinct art unit. MATTHEWS, MADISON ROSE is identified as the busiest examiner. This examiner is responsible for 1 busiest examiner pending action. The data shows 2 pending office actions being reviewed by 2 distinct examiners.
However, because both cases are in 1 distinct art unit, they are being evaluated within the same technical group. MATTHEWS, MADISON ROSE manages 1 busiest examiner pending action, which is the same volume as the other examiner. This suggests that while different individuals are reviewing the applications, the technical focus remains very narrow within the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems sector. Practitioners should note that the 1 distinct art unit involved provides a consistent technical environment for prosecution.
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.
