Analysis

Nagravision Sàrl has 10 pending office actions in Networking & Security. Those matters involve 10 distinct examiners and 9 distinct art units, indicating that the portfolio’s current prosecution work is distributed broadly across examiner assignments while remaining within a limited set of technical groups.

Each examiner is associated with an individual prosecution matter on the available figures, and PHAM, TOAN NGOC is the busiest examiner with 1 pending matter. The data therefore does not identify a concentrated examiner bottleneck. Counsel may need a matter-specific response strategy, with art-unit context considered separately for each application.
