Mara Renewables Corporation has 2 pending office actions in Biotechnology & Pharmaceuticals. The matters involve 2 distinct examiners and 2 distinct art units. TICHY, JENNIFER M.H. is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending action.
The pending work is divided between separate technical and examiner assignments. A coordinated review can identify common disclosure and claim-language issues, but each response should address its own art-unit record. The TICHY matter is one of the two active examination paths, and the profile does not show examiner concentration.
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 (50%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 1 (50%) |
