MagnaChip Semiconductor Ltd. has 3 pending office actions in Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics. Each matter is assigned to a distinct examiner and a distinct art unit, producing separate examination channels for the reported work.
BRAWNER, CHARLES RILEY is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. The examiner’s assignment represents one portion of the pending activity. A coordinated semiconductor prosecution review can support consistent claim terminology while preserving responses tailored to each art unit.
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 | 2 (67%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 1 (33%) |
