Nanoramic Inc. has 5 pending office actions in the Chemistry & Materials technology area. The portfolio is decentralized, with the 5 pending actions spread across 5 distinct examiners and 5 distinct art units. This ratio between actions, examiners, and art units indicates that each pending matter is being reviewed in a unique administrative context. LI, AIQUN is the busiest examiner with 1 pending office action.
Because each of the 5 distinct examiners holds exactly 1 pending action, the prosecution workload is balanced across the 5 distinct art units. This distribution suggests a diverse set of technologies within the Chemistry & Materials field. Practitioners should be prepared to manage 5 distinct examiners, as the 5 pending office actions are not concentrated in any single art unit or under any single examiner's review. The requirement to engage with 5 distinct art units implies that the company must adapt to five different sets of examination guidelines simultaneously.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 2 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.
| Bucket | Cases |
|---|---|
| §103 only | 3 (60%) |
| §102 only | 1 (20%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 1 (20%) |
