Maxon Industries Inc. is currently navigating 2 pending office actions within its patent portfolio. These matters are distributed among 2 distinct examiners, which means each active case is being reviewed by a different individual at the patent office.
JAMES W KEENAN is identified as the busiest examiner for the company, with 1 pending office action under his review. With the 2 pending office actions in total, the company must manage separate examiner relationships to advance its patent applications.
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%) |
