COLLINS, RAVEN is the busiest examiner for the company, with 1 pending office action. Since there are 2 pending actions and multiple examiners, the workload is split evenly between the personnel. The separation into 2 art units means that each action is being prosecuted in a completely different administrative environment. This requires a practitioner to navigate different sets of examiner preferences and art unit norms.
The 2 pending actions are handled by distinct examiners, and the busiest examiner, COLLINS, RAVEN, is responsible for 1 of these actions. The presence of 2 art units highlights the decentralized nature of the company's current Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering prosecution. There is no consolidation of personnel or administrative oversight for the active matters in this portfolio.
