Magnera Corporation currently manages 5 pending office actions within the Chemistry & Materials technology area. These actions are distributed across 3 distinct art units, indicating a variety of technical focuses within the chemistry sector. The prosecution workload is spread among 5 distinct examiners, which suggests that each of the pending office actions is receiving individual attention from a different reviewer at the patent office.
VERA, ELISA H is identified as the busiest examiner for the company, though she currently handles only 1 pending office action. This distribution means that no single examiner has a concentrated influence over the portfolio's current outcomes. Practitioners should prepare for 5 distinct examination styles across the 3 distinct art units involved in these proceedings. Because every action is reviewed by a different person, the company must account for the unique preferences and requirements of each individual examiner and 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 (40%) |
