Motomotion China Corporation is managing 6 pending office actions within the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems technology area. All of these actions are located within 1 distinct art unit, indicating a high level of technical focus in their current patent filings. Despite this focus on 1 distinct art unit, the company is interacting with 5 distinct examiners, which means that almost every pending matter is being reviewed by a different individual within that specific technical group.
PHILIP F GABLER is the busiest examiner for the portfolio, with 2 pending office actions under his review. The remaining pending office actions are distributed among the other examiners. Since all matters reside in the art unit, the company can expect a consistent application of art unit-specific policies even while navigating the individual preferences of different examiners. This situation where 6 pending office actions are concentrated in the technical group requires the applicant to be highly sensitive to the specific nuances of internal guidelines.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 3 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
Every pending office action with a known statutory deadline, placed on a days-until-due axis. Dots left of Today are overdue; the further right, the more runway. Cases that share a deadline window stack vertically. 3 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date.
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.
