Medos International Sàrl has 6 pending office actions in Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering. The matters involve 5 distinct examiners and 4 distinct art units, indicating some repeated examiner and unit assignments within a compact technical footprint. Coordinated tracking may help identify recurring device-related issues.
CARTER, TARA ROSE E is the busiest examiner, with 2 pending matters. Those matters may support targeted comparison of office-action treatment and response choices. The remaining applications still require individualized analysis because the examiner and art-unit assignments are not uniform across the docket.
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 (14%) |
| Double-patenting only | 2 (29%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 4 (57%) |
