Since the examiner is the person reviewing the company's work, establishing the clear line of communication is essential.
The focus on Chemistry & Materials suggests that the technical arguments must meet the specific requirements of that field. Success in this matter will define the company's immediate prosecution results. The applicant must address the specific concerns raised in the pending office action. The prosecution remains centered on the designated art unit and the assigned official.
