Mitac Digital Technology Corporation is managing 2 pending office actions in the Communications technology area. These actions are split between 2 distinct examiners and 2 distinct art units. Mark R Milia is the busiest examiner, currently handling 1 pending office action. The workload is distributed across different examiners and art units, suggesting a decentralized approach.
With 2 pending office actions and 2 distinct examiners, each matter is receiving individual attention from a different examiner. The involvement of 2 distinct art units means that the company is engaging with two separate technical groups within the patent office. Mark R Milia's 1 pending office action accounts for part of the company's current pending activity. This distribution across 2 distinct examiners and 2 distinct art units indicates that the 2 pending office actions in the Communications field are being evaluated independently by Mark R Milia and others.
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.
