Lindsay Corporation has 4 pending office actions in Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering. Those matters involve 4 examiners and 3 art units, indicating that examiner assignment is fully distributed while one art unit handles more than one matter.
BOECKMANN, JASON J is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. No examiner has more than 1 matter in the current profile, so there is no dominant examiner relationship to prioritize. The art-unit distribution still warrants attention because related prosecution may be proceeding within one shared unit.
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 |
|---|---|
| §101 only | 1 (33%) |
| §103 only | 1 (33%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 1 (33%) |
