Monovo LLC has 3 pending office actions in Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering. The matters are assigned across 3 distinct examiners and 3 distinct art units, so the docket shows no numerical concentration by either examiner or art unit.
DIETRICH, JOSEPH M is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. The distribution suggests that prosecution planning should remain application-specific. Counsel can still use a common portfolio review process, but the available figures do not support assuming that one examiner’s approach governs the entire docket.
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.
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.
