Neo Wireless LLC currently has 2 pending office actions in the Networking & Security technology area. These actions are handled by 2 distinct examiners and 2 distinct art units. This means that each of the company's active applications is being reviewed by a different official in a different administrative division of the patent office.
LOUIS, VINNCELAS is the busiest examiner for the company, with 1 pending office action. With 2 distinct examiners and 2 distinct art units involved, there is no concentration in the current prosecution. Practitioners must navigate two separate examination environments within the Networking & Security sector, which requires tailoring strategies to the specific preferences of each examiner and the procedural standards of each distinct art unit.
