Linhai Dongteng Umbrella Industry Co. Ltd. currently manages 1 pending office action within the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems technology area. This active matter is assigned to MCFARLAND, KATHLEEN MAVOURNEEN, who serves as the busiest examiner for the portfolio. The concentration of the portfolio in 1 distinct art unit suggests a highly focused prosecution strategy.
The workload is handled by a distinct examiner, making this individual the primary point of contact for the company's pending intellectual property. This centralized arrangement means that all current prosecution results depend on the review of a single examiner and art unit. MCFARLAND, KATHLEEN MAVOURNEEN is the sole official managing the company's active docket.
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.
