Live Shop Ventures LLC currently faces 1 pending office action in the Networking & Security technology area. The portfolio is being reviewed by 1 distinct examiner in 1 distinct art unit. This level of concentration is typical for smaller portfolios or those focused on a very specific software or security innovation. By being limited to 1 distinct art unit, the prosecution is subject to the specific examination culture and guidelines of that particular administrative group at the patent office.
The busiest examiner assigned to these matters is SHANG, ANNAN Q, who is handling the 1 pending office action. This represents the entirety of the company's current pending prosecution activity, as no other examiners are currently assigned to active cases for this entity. The fact that the busiest examiner has only 1 pending office action confirms that there is no broader volume of work currently moving through the system. For the company, this means that all current legal efforts at the USPTO are focused on a single point of contact.
