2 pending office actions • 2 art units • 2 examiners • 0 of 2 (0%) have an AI response strategy ready
Medici Technologies LLC has 2 pending office actions within the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering technology area. These actions are distributed across 2 distinct art units, suggesting that each of the company's current mechanical filings is categorized differently. The prosecution involves 2 distinct examiners, meaning each action is under the review of a different individual. This distribution across 2 examiners for 2 actions ensures that each file is being evaluated independently by a unique member of the patent office staff.
BRUTUS, JOEL F is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending action under review. Since there are 2 distinct examiners for 2 actions, no single examiner has more than one file. The presence of 2 distinct art units for only 2 actions highlights the technical specificity of each individual application in the current portfolio. Practitioners must tailor their arguments to the specific requirements of the 2 distinct art units and the preferences of the 2 distinct examiners involved in these 2 pending office actions. The lack of overlap requires a customized approach for each pending matter.
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.
