Netafim Ltd. has 5 pending office actions in Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering. The matters involve 5 examiners and 4 art units, showing broad examiner distribution with some concentration within the art-unit structure.
BOECKMANN, JASON J is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. Because the active matters are spread across several examiner relationships, counsel should maintain a coordinated portfolio view while tailoring responses to each device-focused examination record.
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 | 1 (20%) |
