National Taipei University of Technology has 4 pending office actions in the Networking & Security technology area. These matters are distributed across 4 distinct art units, reflecting a broad technical scope within the field for the university's filings. The prosecution involves 4 distinct examiners, meaning each pending action is reviewed by a different individual. This distribution of actions and examiners requires the university to manage 4 separate interactions with patent office personnel.
The busiest examiner is GINGRICH, SHADAN HAGHANI, who handles 1 pending office action. This workload is consistent across all 4 examiners involved, as the 4 pending actions are spread evenly. With 4 pending actions in 4 different art units, the university must manage 4 separate examination processes simultaneously. This distribution indicates that each of the 4 pending actions falls into a unique technical category within Networking & Security. Managing 4 distinct examiners without any overlap requires a strategy that accounts for 4 different sets of examiner feedback. The university must maintain consistency in its legal arguments while addressing the specific technical requirements of 4 different art units and 4 different examiners.
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.
| Bucket | Cases |
|---|---|
| §103 only | 2 (67%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 1 (33%) |
