2 pending office actions • 2 art units • 2 examiners • 0 of 2 (0%) have an AI response strategy ready
Lumendi Ltd. is currently navigating 2 pending office actions in the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering technology area. These matters are split between 2 distinct examiners, ensuring that each pending action is being reviewed by a different individual. Furthermore, the prosecution is occurring across 2 distinct art units, showing a distribution of the company's technology across different specialized groups within the patent office. This variety suggests that the company's inventions are being evaluated from multiple technical perspectives.
GABR, MOHAMED GAMIL is the busiest examiner for the portfolio with 1 pending office action. This examiner is responsible for 1 of the 2 pending office actions in total. The presence of 2 distinct art units for only 2 pending actions suggests that the company's innovations in medical devices and mechanical engineering are being classified into diverse examination categories. This requires the company to maintain a flexible prosecution strategy that addresses the specific requirements of different art units and examiners.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 2 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.
