Matic Robots Inc. has 2 pending office actions in the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering technology area. These actions are split between 2 distinct examiners but are both located within 1 distinct art unit.
The busiest examiner is JONES, CHRISTOPHER P, who is handling 1 pending office action. With 2 distinct examiners assigned to the pending actions, the prosecution workload is divided within the company's 1 distinct art unit. Each examiner manages a single matter, providing multiple perspectives within the unit.
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.
