Luxottica S.r.l. has 15 pending office actions in Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics. The portfolio spans 12 distinct examiners and 2 distinct art units. HASAN, MOHAMMED A, is the busiest examiner with 3 pending office actions.
The comparatively broad examiner distribution within 2 art units indicates repeated technical-group activity handled by multiple examiners. Counsel can build art-unit-level consistency while tracking examiner-specific treatment across the pending matters. HASAN, MOHAMMED A, carries the largest identified assignment, making that relationship relevant to workload planning without representing the full portfolio.
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.
| Bucket | Cases |
|---|---|
| §101 + other | 1 (7%) |
| §103 only | 3 (21%) |
| §102 only | 1 (7%) |
| §112 only | 1 (7%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 8 (57%) |
