Lyten Inc. maintains a significant presence in the Chemistry & Materials technology area, currently managing 10 pending office actions. This workload is distributed across 9 distinct examiners, which suggests a broad exposure to different individual examiner styles and preferences. The prosecution activity is further spread across 9 distinct art units, indicating that the company's technical filings cover a wide range of specialized classifications within the chemistry and materials field.
The busiest examiner for the portfolio is RUTISER, CLAIRE A, who is currently responsible for 2 pending office actions. This examiner is the only one handling more than a single matter, as the rest of the 10 pending office actions are distributed among the other examiners. For practitioners, this environment requires a versatile prosecution strategy that can adapt to many different examiner perspectives. The high number of distinct examiners and art units suggests that Lyten Inc. is pursuing a diverse array of technical innovations, necessitating a coordinated but flexible approach to manage the various procedural and technical requirements across the portfolio.
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 |
|---|---|
| §103 only | 4 (44%) |
| Double-patenting only | 1 (11%) |
| Double-patenting + other | 2 (22%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 2 (22%) |
