Matica Fintec S P A holds a company patent portfolio focused on Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics. There are 2 pending office actions currently active for this portfolio. These actions are distributed among 2 distinct examiners. Additionally, the matters are being processed within 2 distinct art units, which suggests a lack of administrative or technical overlap between the current pending cases. For a patent practitioner, this means that prosecution strategies must be tailored to 2 different individuals across 2 distinct art units.
The busiest examiner identified is VALENCIA, ALEJANDRO, who is currently managing 1 busiest examiner pending action. Given the total of 2 pending office actions, VALENCIA, ALEJANDRO is responsible for a portion of the active docket. The remaining portion is handled by the other of the 2 distinct examiners. This structure implies that the Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics innovations currently under review are diverse enough to be assigned to different specialized units within the patent office. Practitioners should prepare for independent timelines and examination styles for each of the 2 pending office actions due to the lack of overlap in examiners and art units.
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 | 1 (50%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 1 (50%) |
